Non appearance of dhammas to note during meditation Early in my practice (Mahasi noting), I had plenty of thoughts come up to note, as taught, but lately there is only the meditation object. Is this normal or just another impermanent​ thing that will change with​ changing experience? I have meditated 5-6 months, and the last two I've had this (disappearance of outside thought) so to speak. Thanks.
The goal of the trainee level of Buddhist meditation is for the mind to be free from thought. 

The Mahasi noting method is like training wheels on a child's bicycle (to be eventually discarded).
