Answer to a confused seeker

What you are missing,
and I think this may be the source of your confusion is this:
1)There is only ONE G-D.
2) G-D is all that exists. There is nothing else.

Here’s a story:
A student asked Rabbi, “What happens when we are born?” Rabbi replied, “The ocean becomes a drop.” Then the student asked, “So then, what happens when we die?” Rabbi replied again, “The drop returns to the ocean.”

In this story, the Ocean is G-d. The drop is you and me, and everyone else. Everybody, and everything; all matter and energy comes from G-d. Human kind is unique in that the soul is made in the image and likeness of G-d (not the body – just the soul), the body is not the real you. The body is only a vessel, a conveyance, and a temporary one at that. The soul (aka, spirit; aka, self; aka, (in Hindi) the atman) is your true self. The real you. For lack of a better word, we say that the soul is energy. Science tells us that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. You might say that G-d creates energy, in that G-d creates everything. The soul is made in the image and likeness of G-d. Not just made that way, the soul is G-d. One and the same entity. The ONENESS of the ALL. We know that G-d created all things (and non-things).
Back to our story: The ocean is G-d. The drop returns to the ocean, to G-d. So, the drop is G-d.
THOU ART G-D, I AM G-D, all that groks is G-D. The only true reality is God, all else is illusion.
Namaste!
