Mistaking Self-realization for God-realization

One who has come to the earthshaking realization
of the true self can easily think that he or she
has come to the realization of God. In other words
one can mistake self-realization for God-realization. . .
Never think that you have reached journey's end.
Remember that the true self is opening out to the
beyond, and that your journey goes on and on and on.
It goes beyond the mystery of the self to the mystery
of One Who knows no limits. Even in eternity we shall
never arrive: we shall never exhaust the mystery of God.
