the part that says:

Realization occurs when the Physical Unit Connects either with its own Resident Monadic Consciousness or some other "node" in the Fabric of Consciousness

is not really correct; it is mistaking "realization" for "connection."

yoga means union of a particular emanation or incarnation or body or whatnot with the consciousness of krsna.

(in other words, being "realized" in the sense of being "connected" to "another node in the fabric of consciousness" where you think you you are somebody else or whatever has nothing to do with realization as the word is used in yoga.)

if you are using the word "realization" in an LP-specific way (i.e. not representative of traditional yogic understanding), one idea is to indicate that in some way.

anyway, if what i am saying doesn't really resonate, i think the LP notion of "realization" doesn't really correspond to my experience, or my understanding of the consensus experiential-based understanding conveyed by any yogi that i am familiar with.
