In yoga, self-realization is knowledge of one's true self. This true self is also referred to as the atman to avoid ambiguity. The term "self-realization" is a translation of the Sanskrit expression atman jnana (knowledge of the self or atman). The reason the term "realization" is used instead of "knowledge" is that jnana refers to knowledge based on experience, not mere intellectual knowledge.

As discussed in the article on yoga, while the goal of self-realization is the same in all yoga paths, the means used to achieve that goal differ. (see below)

The following terms are related to self-realization or atma jnana:

moksha (liberation from the cycle of birth and death)
samadhi (Supreme or Divine Bliss)

Experience of self. It is different from body but anchored within body. It expands and contracts like a free form from heart region. Self realization is not God realization. Its a matter of experience, which can never occure with discussions on the subject.

Self realization is realizing you aren't real. You are an illusion, just a part of the dream of the universe, mere stardust.

Self Actualization = Mastery of the Laws of Life/Physics = FREEDOM!
