There is no pride in being self-realized. It has no value in society. I have no social life now and I don't regret it.
Chicks like yoga but they stay away from topics like spirituality and Advaita. Not to be sexist, but looking at the number of males I have seen here, you can easily say that Advaita is also a man's domain. So far, I have not found much value in being self-realized except peace of mind. There is great power in being a jnani. But there is no pride in it. Truth is liberation. But liberation is just liberation. There is joy. That is all. Simple and sweet. Nothing complicated.
