Yes. The hard way.
Good luck,

how hard will it be?
Depends on how stubborn you are, or how clever. Judging from reading you - could be pretty hard. Think total mental exhaustion. Like no longer being able to reconcile everything.
But then again, I was under pressure because of several other things. So it might not happen for you. It was wonderful in its own right. I tend to see it as moment of grace. It came in a moment of great distress.
In the end you could follow your current path through several lifetimes. My mental makeup is surely different from yours, so maybe you never "hit the wall". Maybe you can do both - since you meditate - explore thinking and emptiness interchangeably. Just because you love to think big does not mean you chose to live in your head as strongly as I did. I had ironfist control over myself, which turned in the end to be impossible to keep up.
If your way does bring you (lasting) joy and no suffering, you must be doing something right. So I guess that would be a better guide than anything I could say. Suffering of any kind is also always a strong indication.
I only keep on wondering about the message of your three items from earlier - it seems to me like a stern warning about the linear-thinking brain. Or at least about to acutely stay aware of its limitations or underlying mechanisms while using it.
