Namaste sarva,
No. That is not how an advaitin sees everything. A realised Advaitin knows the Universe as divine Purusha and not as you and me.

How can that which perishes be real in ultimate terms?
Advaitins merely ask us to abide by that which is always real -- that is God. Moreover, I cannot comprehend how
Tattva, which means
Thatness perish? How can God's true nature perish, unless there is a mistake in ascribing something else (such as ascribing divisiblity to Atman, which is ever indivisible) as the true nature. It is the mistake of seeing the Tattva as different and separate from Tat.
Please do not be hurried.
