What is God ?Is i am God?

Firstly i want to say that i am not this body but i am the whole Universe or infinite being and secondly from God this Universe has been created and when everything will be finished then only God will be left.

ਆਪਨ ਖੇਲੁ ਆਪਿ ਕਰਿ ਦੇਖੈ ॥ आपन खेलु आपि करि देखै ॥ He Himself creates and beholds His own drama.

ਖੇਲੁ ਸੰਕੋਚੈ ਤਉ ਨਾਨਕ ਏਕੈ ॥੭॥ खेलु संकोचै तउ नानक एकै ॥७॥
He winds up the drama, and then, O Nanak, He alone remains. ||7||

I understand this that i am God and i am not part of this Universe but this Universe is part of me.I think the confusion lies because we dont have this realisation but our Knowledge is dependent on Gurbani or Saint discourses.

ਮਨ ਤੂੰ ਜੋਤਿ ਸਰੂਪੁ ਹੈ ਆਪਣਾ ਮੂਲੁ ਪਛਾਣੁ ॥ मन तूं जोति सरूपु है आपणा मूलु पछाणु ॥
O my mind, you are the embodiment of the Divine Light - recognize your own origin.

ਮਨ ਹਰਿ ਜੀ ਤੇਰੈ ਨਾਲਿ ਹੈ ਗੁਰਮਤੀ ਰੰਗੁ ਮਾਣੁ ॥ मन हरि जी तेरै नालि है गुरमती रंगु माणु ॥
O my mind, the Dear Lord is with you; through the Guru's Teachings, enjoy His Love.

ਮੂਲੁ ਪਛਾਣਹਿ ਤਾਂ ਸਹੁ ਜਾਣਹਿ ਮਰਣ ਜੀਵਣ ਕੀ ਸੋਝੀ ਹੋਈ ॥ मूलु पछाणहि तां सहु जाणहि मरण जीवण की सोझी होई ॥ Acknowledge your origin, and then you shall know your Husband Lord, and so understand death and birth.

ਗੁਰ ਪਰਸਾਦੀ ਏਕੋ ਜਾਣਹਿ ਤਾਂ ਦੂਜਾ ਭਾਉ ਨ ਹੋਈ ॥ गुर परसादी एको जाणहि तां दूजा भाउ न होई ॥ By Guru's Grace, know the One; then, you shall not love any other.

ਮਨਿ ਸਾਂਤਿ ਆਈ ਵਜੀ ਵਧਾਈ ਤਾ ਹੋਆ ਪਰਵਾਣੁ ॥ मनि सांति आई वजी वधाई ता होआ परवाणु ॥ Peace comes to the mind, and gladness resounds; then, you shall be acclaimed.

ਇਉ ਕਹੈ ਨਾਨਕੁ ਮਨ ਤੂੰ ਜੋਤਿ ਸਰੂਪੁ ਹੈ ਅਪਣਾ ਮੂਲੁ ਪਛਾਣੁ ॥੫॥ इउ कहै नानकु मन तूं जोति सरूपु है अपणा मूलु पछाणु ॥५॥ Thus says Nanak: O my mind, you are the very image of the Luminous Lord; recognize the true origin of your self. ||5||

Doesn't this Shabad means that i am God.
