ISHNA Ji, Look at the Rahao... is posing the question "who has died??? As in astonishment / disbelief obvious by the statement... something wonderous has happened!) Also look further down it plainly says there is no death... and that part of us (the nonphysical part - soul if you will) continues on. It's that nonphysical part btw which 'experiences / is the 'doer')

As you rightly pointed out, ALL is Creator anyway, we have just 'forgotten' that fact. So in reality there is no coming or going... it's all within the mind of the creator... just as a dream happens in our own minds)
Gurbani talks about death extensively. But death is not real, because this is all Akaal Purakh anyway. You are Akaal Purakh, and It never dies.
--- this!!!!! But more than just being akal purakh as in star dust - unconscious etc... (ie: the physical bits that make our body up, as that is part of what is false - that which is known - but the very inner being YOU the part of you that says 'I AM' THAT is what never dies)
