What is the difference between spiritual and Supramental realization?

Spiritual realization can be had on any plane by contact with the Divine (Who is everywhere) or by the perception of the Self within, which is pure and untouched by the outer movements. The Supermind is something transcendent — a dynamic Truth-consciousness which is not yet here and is to be brought down from above.
