@The0Self but there is an inherent happiness from the absence or at least relaxation of the ego, right? emptiness is happiness, or perhaps, the absence of unhappiness is happiness, or seems happiness

Certainly no unhappiness, in a way. No saying no to or looking away from what arises. It is bliss, really, but it was always that way -- I can't explain that.

@The0Self thanks for trying to explain

@VeganAwake Okay, so everything you say is a pointer that has no prescription for or against practice?

 yes, because the one practicing is the illusion of self thinking it's going to get somewhere.

It's just a pointer right, there's nothing more to that than read it, get confused and continue to think about "how to I get there" even though it's a pointless chase. 

 yes and it's pointless because the one chasing it isn't real.

I feel like a lot of radical nondualists are like a mysterious oracles you just poke and it gives you another pointer?

The pointer is that the individual looking for just the right pointer is unreal.
