I have read Yogananda's autobiography and if I remember correctly he liked to call it self realization. When if at all do you think Yogananda achieved self realization?
It has been a long time since I read this book but it touched me greatly. I recommend it to everyone. I must read it again soon!
Namaste, Jia.

Dear LucidJia
What 14 Chakras wrote is correct, my answer is also true just more simplistic.
As to Yogananda Dr David Hawkins author of "Power versus Force" and other more advanced books developed a map of consciousness.
He calibrated enlightenment at 600 on his scale and Yoganand a just short of this but at a level of unconditional love ie Saint hood.
There are levels of enlightenment according to Dr David Hawkins which fits with 14 Chakras post.
According to Hawkins only God walks through the final door.
Self enlightenment is also known as God realisation.
