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

Asti = being

Krishna sums the relationship up in two verses:-

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.

Can the right person make a narc want to change their ways? Is love that powerful? Has anyone seen this or experience it?

Priyam = Love.

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

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:-

Why is watching a man and a woman have sex considered perverted? It's how we all got here, it's what we do, I say if you want to watch porn then carry on!

Bhāti = illumination - consciousness

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

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