realization. awakening, or liberation. Should any of these occur, connection to Oneness would in no way be increased for it must already be Oneness unenlightened, unrealized, asleep, and imprisoned !

The egoic mind is a very useful tool in helping us have the experience of singularity.
Of course behind that surface experience lies Oneness.
Once Oneness is discovered, we can reengage the egoic mind to experience singularity again.
So both are true - depending how one focus's the lens so to speak.
Any perceived distance is ego's attempt to keep it's belief in singularity.
Oneness being a state of being, persistent and Omni-present there is no distance - there is only the 'story of separation'.
