Probably a waste of time posting this thread, might be easier getting blood from a stone . I think based upon earlier and present discussions there appears to be a noted difference although not explained in any depth between Self Realization and what I refer to as 'Being' what you are beyond any self reflection that is beyond mind . There are obvious differences had pertaining to what S.R. actual refers to or means to each individual and I would say Being has the same issues, for myself I see there is only being and Self realization is the result of that contrasting difference where there is self and no self, mind and no mind . Another aspect is what I have noticed is the whole witnessing and observing the realization itself from a position of ignorance or delusion . This is in my eyes obviously not what 'being' refers or points too . Being and Self are the same. Butt Self realization isn't Being in your eyes . The Thread is about the differences between Self Realization and Being . Saying Being and Self are the same doesn't really add anything to the pot .

Saying Being and Self are the same doesn't really add anything to the pot . What it means is that Self realization is Being realization. You're equating Self or Being to the happening of realizing Self or Being.

Self realization isn't by your own admission the same as Being, butt Self realization is the same as Being realization .. I have already said that only self can be realized or be unrealized . Self or Being is beyond realization . Self or Being does not require realization of any kind .

Self-Realization refers to realizing the true Self by knowing the false self

Self Realization refers to the realization OF Self, not BY Self. What are you going on about now? Self doesn't require the realization!! How many times do I have to say it . Who has suggested that Self, Self realises Self by Self? This is the whole point I have been making for weeks, self requires the realization . What is regarded as the realization itself (not the self observing Self) is actually being what you are . There has to be the being of what you are for the self to realize what you are . Your looking at the realization thru a looking glass, via observing the process .. It's incorrect .
