I think we agree on the main point and it's probably just semantics. I'm just saying Consciousness is Awareness is Pure Being is Atman is Brahman is Source, etc... We - and I mean Ahamkara/ego - tend to localize it. The illusion is "I am conscious" whereas I would say we are Consciousness itself. It's the aspect of experience that is our tether to the Divine. Right here and right now.

The way I see the presentation in the video you linked can be correlated with this talk. Two Steps to the Not-Two: Swami Sarvapriyananda https://youtu.be/kPdsAPlK2Js

Step 1 is the first view (relative - dual) in the video you linked and Step 2 is the second view (Absolute - nondual).
