Why everyone uses God-realization here? Instead of Self-realization?

My bar for speaking solipsism with you without pulling my hairs out is that you know the difference between cosmic solipsism and egoic solipsism, and you know the difference between a perception and pure consciousness.

The word doesn't matter as much as the understanding of it. The reason the word God is used is because Self Realization is the coming into contact and communication with a Universal Mind that has the ability to perform miracles at will with nothing to stop it or tell it that it is wrong for doing it. What else would you call an all powerful mind that can create something from nothing? The word God is sufficient. You could always call it Source if you don't like the word God.

Good to see you again. Well, source and God have different connotations . God implies a creator with an intention, like, ok, I'm god and I will create humans, because I want. Humans, be! And the humans are. Source implies the foundation of the reality, of what is, and because it is, the humans are. Why? Because are a possibility, a potentiality that is happening. Without any intention, since the source is not limited. The source doesn't decide, it flows, and this flow now is you.

If you are questioning why it's called God then you haven't yet realized God.

I've always resonated with Source best too. People continue to misunderstand this post when I have already laid out what i meant.

Something that can formulate a label knows the label. While the label in and of itself, knows nothing of itself. 
 

In the same context, a tree never asks why it is a tree.

I mean for all I F 'ing care I could call it just a sleeping bear, or a pair of dirty underwear.

It does not change that to which I am Aware.

It is a Direct thing. Right here. Right now.

You either Grasp it in the Moment. Or you don't. 

Call it Goddamned Alacazam.

I do not care. That to which I am Conscious of is much greater than the labels with which I apply to it.

It is like you are splashing in a dirty puddle trying to clear it up. Just let water settle you fools.

Even the word "source" could be confusing implying a duality: a source from which reality emerges, when reality does not emerge, it simply is.

The concept of enlightenment is extremely simple: what everything is, is being. Being is, and everything is an expression of being. Being is absolute, without opposite, since non-being is not. Forms are relative; they are relational. Enlightenment is the form that is conscious of form becoming aware of its absolute nature. When you open yourself to your nature, you realize that being is everything, and form are form. That's it, sounds anticlimactic but it isn't.

About God, you could say that the totality of the being manifested is God, and you and God are one in essence. But what you can't say is that you are god dreaming the reality and you are omnipotent, because it's not true, you are a relative form. Relative to the other forms, created by them by relationship, and creator of them by relationship .

Zero and infinity, from an absolute perspective, are two extremes that touch to the point of becoming one. Zero is the absence of everything; in the absence of everything, there are no absolute limits that stabilize nothingness as the absence of contrast, of "something."

Infinity is the infinity of contrast, of relative change, of form. Any local relative form, if you open the perspective to infinity, blurs into zero.

Therefore, zero and infinity are the same. Relative forms are forms from a local perspective; from a total perspective, there are no forms, only being. Infinity and zero are two facets of being that are truly the same.

The image did a much better job at explaining it. All you did was complicate it, as humans continue to do, and the cycle goes on...

Form and emptiness. God-realization is about realizing form. Self-realization is about realizing emptiness. Unity Consciousness is when the God-realization has matured to reflect the self-realization in form.

"But that is to complicate it". It's just the case that you can refine the understanding of form.

Well, that's your opinion. Humans are complicated, things are simple, humans should be simpler, it's just your perspective. The perspective of the reality is that humans should be as their are.

The problem with God is that it implies creating, which isn't true. Infinity means everything already is, time/creation is an illusion ultimately. "God" gives scared people an emotional crutch, "God will save us!", "it's just God's plan that I (am a loser)", " i just need to reach god!". Within infinity, God exists, every God exists, no god exits, and every God exists alone and simultaneously and never,.... but ultimately, there is no creator.

Creation is the mediation between emptiness and form.
