People can not generally think of the mind and it's operations, geographically, but only metaphorically. They often call it's operations non-material, non- localizable, non-touchable. But, if they could think of the thought- cloud surrounding their brain- globe, as territory, physical territory, they might begin to see what Talk really is.
(Remember, talk occurs somewhere, not only just sometime.)
Consider: ordinary conversation occurs between the confused, and the objectively stupid (what have they, really, got to talk about?) Two enlightened sages sitting quietly in a room together, will not often be found gloating** over their own or each other's accomplishments, travels, or exploits.
(Afterall, they both know the territory is ONE.)
Now, the fun of exploration, exploring the mind, begins to make sense.
