Can you explain the difference between God and atma accordin...

One may ask which of these three views is correct - well each school argues its case in depth and prolixity. The summary and take away information is that Param-ātma and jīvātma are intimately and inseparably related to each other and share three qualities:-

Priyam = Love.

Bhāti = illumination - consciousness

Is it ok if I wear a bonnet as a person with straight hair? I used to have curly hair, but later on in life I got it treated, I’m not black, but my hair keeps getting frizzy every morning so I am considering it. Is it cultural appropriation?

So these verses affirm the identity of God and the Individual Self and there are three views according to the three major schools of Vedānta.

Visiṣṭhādvaita Vedānta - (Qualified non-duality) They are one but ontologically distinct, like a flower and its smell or like a picture and its pixels.

Dvaita Vedānta - (Duality) God and the individual Self are absolutely distinct and separate.

What should you answer when someone says to you in French, "au plaisir de vous revoir"?

Asti = being

Advaita Vedānta - (Non-duality) God (Paramātma) and the individual Self (jīvātma) are one and the same = identical.

Krishna sums the relationship up in two verses:-
