You are God

And everything else too

Shakti Shaktimator Yadwat Abhedas Sarvada Sthithaha
Athasthaddharmadharmithwath Parashakthih Parathmanaha
This verse simply says you and everything else is God - Consciousness, Awareness. The power or energy and its container are one. There is no function for them independently. The electricity and its container are one/ There is no function for them independently. The electricity is contained in the wire. Without the wore, the electricity cannot be transported. Without the electricity, the wire can be used just as some plastic rope. Likewise, all nature that you see around you, including yourself contain the dharma or the force of nature that sustains. The holder of this dharma, i.e. you and I, are not different from the dharma. Same way, the supreme cosmic energy is not different from its container, the supreme soul.

Swahilya,
What a wonderful,powerful sloka!Everything is God - then why do we fight and kill each other? If only we could all realize this, what a beautiful world this would be.
