Advaita alike in the Bhagavata and Skanda Puranas

The following premise is conveyed by this sloka from the Sruti Gita of the
Bhagavata:

श्रीमद्भागवतपुराणम्/स्कन्धः १०/उत्तरार्धः/अध्यायः ८७

स्वकृतविचित्रयोनिषु विशन्निव हेतुतया
तरतमतश्चकास्स्यनलवत् स्वकृतानुकृतिः ।
अथ वितथास्वमूष्ववितथां तव धाम समं
विरजधियोऽनुयन्त्यभिविपण्यव एकरसम् ॥ १९ ॥

Meaning: Brahman shines in the variegated bodies it has created. An
illustration of this: Agni pervades all inflammable substances and resides
there in potential form. This Brahman, which is one-natured, is realized by
those who have attained Vairagya, dispassion, to worldly matters, as the
true substance, the Real principle, in the unreal bodies.
