Is there a bondage that is Separate from God?

If 'Bondage is seen no longer as separate
from God then it is no longer a bondage'
This is a variation of the old question in Hinduism:-
If Maya is also God's creation why try and overcome it?
The reply was given: "If it is experienced (not just accepted
intellectually but actually experienced) as the 'manifesting
power of God' it no longer binds. It is embraced as Kali.
So we come back to Vivekanada's quote. When he made this
statement he was not addressing a God realised person but the rest of
mankind. It is very important to view each statement of a God-man
in context.
