God is beyond the spatial co-ordinates
The entire creation is constituted by the spatial co-ordinates. Hence, beyond creation means beyond space and this means finally beyond spatial co-ordinates. The intelligence can never cross the spatial co-ordinates and hence can never touch the boundary of this creation from which God starts. The soul, mind, intelligence, ideas and imagination are made of nervous energy only, which is a special work form of inert energy. The human body is made of inert energy and matter. Matter is a form of inert energy. Even the space is a form of very subtle inert energy only. All this creation including the human beings is basically inert energy only. The soul is a part of this creation and therefore the creation is as true as the soul. All this creation including the souls is relative reality and God alone is the absolute reality. From the point of God, the creation is not real.
But from the point of the soul the creation is equally real. Since God is the absolute reality and soul is the relative reality, neither God is soul nor soul is God. If you say that the creation is real, it contradicts the view of God. If you say that creation is unreal, it contradicts the view of the soul. It is just like the issue of Telangana in Andhra Pradesh. If you support United State, people in Telangana oppose. If you support separate Telangana, people in the other part of the state oppose.
Hence, Shankakra told that creation is neither real nor unreal and is Mithya. When a human being becomes God, the creation becomes unreal for that specific human incarnation. Here also, neither God becomes the soul and human body nor the soul and human body become God. Just like a metallic wire can be treated as current on charging with electricity, the human being charged by God is treated as God and hence we say that the human being becomes God.
