I spent alot of time on those short mountains in the desert. Watching nature and such. I wasnt sure if the cross legged posture with the thumb and index finger connecting to make a circle was more than a cliche or meme way to meditate but I figured it was comfortable enough to allow me to meditate so I did that alot. There was a wonderful sound of silence on the top of those hills. Well, it wasnt always totally silent. There were gentle breezes, bees buzzing, ground squirrels chittering, birds of prey could sometimes be heard as well. In rare cases, if you hold really still, lizards would perch on your feet and animals would resume their life in the surrounding area. Jack rabbits the size of small coyotes would be bouncing around occasionally in small groups. None of those sounds were very loud but, it was a nice rythm, nature in desert has a really chill rythm if you go at the right times to the right places. I could even hear a tempo or rythm when I started attending public school but everyone thought I was crazy lol. Recently I read the book "Fahrenheit 451" and one of the things that really stuck with me from the book was a line from the old man helping out the main character. He said something along the lines of "Having time for your own thoughts is a luxury nowa days but should be a human right" or something to that effect. I think he's right though, and I think your question leans into that, in that we need time to be in our own heads thinking our own thoughts without outside stimulation influencing us. Perhaps nature can be considered outside stimuli but it is an important rhythm that should be allowed to help form paths in our brains, partially because we evolved in that environment and our body craves that environment to help its development.
