A few thoughts:

- Maybe!

- Don't accidentally get caught in the fallacy of "how I experience existence must be how everyone does

- Is it possibly just a semantic distinction at that point? If you are completely consciously unaware of an internal voice that speaks your language, does it matter if it's there or not?



I’m with you on 2, but it doesn’t seem like just me - it seems like vast majority except the occasional person claiming it’s different for them.

It’s not a semantic distinction to me, since the mechanism underlying it would then be the same and it’d just be their recognition of it that varied which is way less surprising.


Indeed, there are legions of non-dual meditation apps and meditation teachers who train people to deal with this inner voice in ways that are helpful.

If such people were not rampant, I do not think these teachers and apps would be so popular.


A lot of therapy is also focused around self-talk and rumination too.
