Duality and non duality. It's a hard one to get the head around. I belive that Ik on kar, that duality is indeed an illusion, but it's a bit one way and a bit the other.
If God has granted us free will, that is the freedom to choose God or not, then that points towards non duality, but does it really? I see it like water. The sea is the whole, the ik on kar, but it is made up of individual drops. We are both the individual drops and the whole.
