In the end it is just being able to identify Awareness as the real Self and not the ego. We don't get rid of the ego, we see it as a friendly pet trying to help us navigate the world. If you experience emptiness, that's OK. It's just the ego feeling less important.
My experience is a shift where the ego drops into the background and one is aware of eternal existence as awareness itself. Thinking quiets down, but is still available for navigating the world.
I always sought the Truth. I was not trying to be good, or saintly, just resolving the itch that something was missing. I do feel that awakening/realization does tend to make one less selfish, kinder, etc. And while thinking is still there, it is less personal and few conflicts.
