When one realizes the mind (matter) and invisible Soul (Spirit), the Self is one in essence then there is no place for the duality. Without duality, the universe ceases to exist as a reality.

Without the universe, your existence within the universe is merely an illusion because there is no scope for two. After all, the universe itself is created out of a single stuff. That single stuff is consciousness or Spirit. The Spirit or consciousness is God in truth.

Bhagavad Gita says: ~ ​“Brahmano hi pratisthaham Brahman”- (Godm in truth) is considered the all-pervading consciousness which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material (Gita 14.27)

When the Bhagavad Gita says, God is considered the all-pervading consciousness which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material then nothing has to be accepted as God other than consciousness.

Bhagavad Gita Chapter: ~ ​“All those whose intelligence has been stolen by material desires, they worship many Gods. (7- Verse)

Vedas, Upanishad, and Bhagavad Gita Bible confirm the invisible Soul, the Self, which is the present in the form of the Spirit or the consciousness is God in truth.

It is for every seeker who is seeking truth must first know what God is supposed to be in actuality according to Vedas and Upanishads and reject all non-Vedic Gods, to realize the Atman is real God. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
