Logically correct but practically never feasible for only one exists in 
time
(or out of it) - not both!
>  Again it is possible in that invicible 'vyAvahArika 
satya':-))...example eyes may see the curved stick in the water but your 
hand can feel the not curved nature of that same stick!!..one more, though 
the underlying truth of hammer, base plate and rod hammered to flatten is 
'metal' or steel its practical utility differs in vyAvahArika jagat :-)) 
Likewise, ONE paramAtma can appear as bhOktru, bhOjya & bhOktavya..nothing 
wrong in that in vyavahAra:-))
You need *TWO* to say that one is real and the other is false.  The
intellect will never apprehend the Reality, can it?
>  Again, in vyavahAra there are really two but in reality the underlying 
truth of these TWO is ONE. 
As far the aathman there had never been an 'unrealized' state to leap into 
a change.
>  yes, but in Sri Sadananda prabhuji's words :  "running is required to 
know 'there is no need to run" :-))
Thus the surrender to the Guru only is important, nothing else.
>  Yes, sharaNAgati at the guru pAda kAmala can possible only in the case 
of TWO in vyavahAra is it not??  If the 'unrealized' state had never been 
there in this vyavahAra there would have been no guru, no shishya, no 
shAstra vAkya..is it not??  Two different compartments & two different 
stuff in it..we cannot mix it & got ourselves confused :-))
Hari Hari Hari Bol!!!
