I my very limited experiences. To listen deeply in order to "experience", not "hear", silence is to have the capacity to stop and observe with complete objectivity. No longer creating conditions nor empowering conditions to arise. It is bare observation that is able to sense without grasping as what is sensed manifests and dissolves.
Silence does not arise, it is present, what arises is my capacity to experience without interruption.
