1] us

where is the advaita?
If I read and comprehend your post correctly, I'd offer this...
There is no difference between soul and God; we do not become god-like. There is no us and Him. Where do I get my support for this?
It is said (in kaśmir śaivism) this Supreme independent (svātantrya) state of God Consciousness (caitanya) is the form¹.
But the form of what? It is the 'form' of everything.
This implies that solid ( body) or spiritual ( non-body) , material or non-material however subtle, has this form. It is the essence of everything, and this is the Supreme, Brahman.
iti śivaṁ
1. śiva sūtra-s , 1st verse.
यतस्त्वं शिवसमोऽसि
yatastvaṁ śivasamo'si
because you are identical with śiva
