Thoughtlessness is not Advaitic wisdom. In deep sleep there is thoughtlessness, but deep sleep is the state of ignorance because we come to know of the deep sleep experience only in the waking experience, which is the state of ignorance.
The Self is not you but the ‘Self is the Soul. The thoughts come to you because you are the thinker. The thinker, thoughts, and the world in which the thinker exists are part of the waking experience.
From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self, The waking experience is a dualistic illusion. The dualistic illusion is the product of ignorance. When ignorance vanishes the reality hidden by the dualistic illusion appears.

By stopping the thoughts ignorance will not vanish. The thinker and the thoughts and the world in which the thinker exists have nothing to do with the Soul because the Soul is not an individual. The thoughts come only to the individual.
Until you think the Self is within your body you will never be able to grasp the truth, which is the ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
The thought raises only the domain of form, time, and space. Without the form, time,e and space the thoughts will not form.
The thoughts, thinker, and the world in which you exist are made of a single clay. And that single clay is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Knowledge of the single clay is Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
Remember:~
Remember:~
By stopping the thoughts or watching the thoughts or by keeping silent ignorance will not vanish.
Only through Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana, ignorance vanish.
No use in watching the thoughts
within the dualistic illusion or Maya. The
thinker, his thoughts, and his experience of the world are created out of a single stuff. That single stuff is the Soul which is present in the form of consciousness.
The thinker, thoughts, and experience
of the world are part of the dualistic illusion or Maya, which is present in
the form of the universe.
The universe appears as waking or
dream (duality) and disappears as deep sleep (nonduality). :~ Santthosh Kumaar
