I remember when it used to be all the rage about how people go through the motions in their daily life and how their daily life then comes up feeling empty. Your description speaks of the same type of emptiness. They have all the words, they go through all the motions, and still it is lacking something.
I wonder what that something is?
What I've observed to be "missing" is usually the connection between spirit/silent-knowing and the experience itself. While humans are busy trying to *explain* the experience, they are usually missing the connection to the force/spirit that facilitated the experience in the first place... so yes, it stands to reason something would appear to be "missing". Silent knowing is just that: silent.
