Why do you think it's the same thing, saying that everything = God is to limit the ’ to what I think and perceive as everything… as opposed to saying “that everything” is in God, which is simply not to limit God within the limitations of my consciousness but to always leave a place within me that remembers that the divine essence is essentially beyond all consciousness and perception.. is this the same thing?
It's the same thing with regard to its connection with us and our existence. We are identical to it, and we have no independent existence. But beyond us there is another component(s) in it.
