I agree with this. If by some strange or lucky chance, one's path does cross with a Self-Realised soul, (they are incredibly rare) there are two things to notice:
1) That soul will be emitting a tremendous perceivable energy
2) They will have to pause and 'come out' from that that they are in order to be aware in the ego/I. So if you refer to them during regular conversation, they won't actually immediately know who you're talking about.
