Everything and nothing.

Self realization is different to enlightenment although both words are often used interchangeably. Self realization is easy to describe as it's the sudden intuitive realization of your true nature. Enlightenment, however, is the effect of self realization and describing this is where language falls short. From an enlightened perspective you are at first seen as pure awareness but later as both awareness and it's expression. The experience of being human continues but not exclusively as a human. Now is added the inclusive understanding that while the human experience continues - we are the awareness of the human experience. Or you could say we are everything and no-thing.
