    So that is not what they mean…

    By silent,they mean nothing. Emptiness. Zero stimuli.

      Yes, completely silent, as in nothing, empty, zero thought is happening in the foreground. The images and hunches are secondary and it’s the only way I can think in that mode but it feels primal.

      The background would be my subconscious deep down. I can’t explain it. I know things are happening up there because I’m alive but I’m not conscious of them. I have to conjure the images to put those things into words per se so I can have more complex thoughts.
