Some approaches to selfing: Cultivate a singular self. Playfully present a variety of improvised selves. Locate a self-for-this-moment from a pantheon of available selves. Skillfully inhabit an ever-expanding multitude of rich visions-of-self, a palette of selves for painting.
Mature art styles in the medium of Being are diverse. Even the early process: become a blank canvas? Become malleable clay? Become a laser-cutter? Or maybe even become a mixed-media artist.
Non-duality is amazing stuff, but Non-dualism (fetishism of Non-duality) is an ideology. Consider the inseparability of duality and non-duality.
Eternal Values: values you would, right now, be willing to hold forever. Note: the constant evolution of one’s eternal values can look as if you have no values at all.
Ontologies (the way we abstract reality) can never stabilize. An ontology serves a job-to-be-done. After the job is done, or fails to get done, there is a new job to do. And so a new ontology arises. The greatest delusion is to settle things for once and for all.

Philosophers construct false dilemmas of morality. When life presents you with a true moral dilemma, there is no answer, anymore than there is an answer as to how to make a shape that is a square and a circle at the same time.
You have some power to shape the world. Meanwhile, the world is shaping you. Sometimes into a clear form, sometimes into no particular form. Allowing this, you dance with the world as your partner. And, occasionally stumble, or skip a dance to go to the bathroom.
How the self is like a wave:
arises due to external forces and passes away into nothing
responds to the environment by changing form
has general continuity
has momentum
has no unchanging essence
really exists
may be experienced as enjoyable, hazardous, or neutral
Instead of "getting it", transcend the question of "getting it". "Getting it" is a reduction of "it" to a conceptual framework. In releasing compulsion to "get it" a deep gnosis arises that there is no "it" to "get". (Near enemy: the concept of "there is no 'it' to 'get'")

Yellow Pig indeed.
