OK! Here we go again. The same issue, a different take.
Jed describes a truth with bubbles in it. The yin-yang symbol as a sign for it all. The yin-yang is the symbol for duality and the circle/glob contains it. And outside is the "truth".
I quote him from SE-DamnestThing.pdf:
"The truth is out there-the void, the abyss, no-self and our fragile little bubbles are what lets us float around in the infinite, able to enjoy the experience of somethings where only nothingness exists. The illusion of opposites- good and bad, love and hate, only in bubbles."
This actually sounds like duality to me. You have "truth" and you have the "illusion".
And he also describes how he happily dives back into the bubble to enjoy life. Did he have a choice in not doing so? He does not say. But this actually looks like the "bubble" and "life" is to prefer before being only "truth". (hm) Well, I have not finished the reading yet.
This is my main issue. How the h-l can you have a truth with exeptions?? An Absolute that is not ALL? The Truth must include the bubbles or it is not Truth. That is my take on it.
