I would say that is impersonalism, not mayavada. An it is far better than atheism.

The Matrix is also about impersonalism.

How can they imagine that God is a blue boy who plays the flute.
It is easier to imagine that God is just the force or an energy.

I like the Matrix. So once my mom gave me an example of the Matrix. She said: those green little numbers. Imagine that those are little Krishnas. So that means that without all those little Krishnas there is nothing.

Yes it is kind of Krsirodakasayi Visnu. All pervading little Krsnas like all pervading milk.
