I am no non-duality scholar, so I may be wrong (I often am)
Isn't non-duality described as direct pointing?
The subforum name in that regards describes a state as if that realization has already been made. It points directly to the realization. Until we find ourselves there however there are some practices we can do or train to help us stumble over the end realization quicker. In other words(and to steal a good quote). Enlightenment is an accident. Some practices makes us accident prone.

Do you think it is?
If I look around and see all the people realizing different things which may cause them suffering instead of happy accidents. I wonder.. Can these people be helped to have a happy accident? Do they even want to? What makes me think it would be beneficial to them?
