If one had such a state, and one asked them to describe it, they may say it is nothing, but then nothing is a something.

Describing a wordless or thoughtless state is not an issue. All analogies have a main underlining meaning or point, that it is making, that can be described by using the common everyday english language or words, so why not use the common english language to desribe what the underlining meaning/point of the anaolgy is, instead of using spiritual speak/language, that can create confusion?
Since spiritual language, speak and jargon,(that ironically uses the english language), forms the spiritual analogy, then the english language can describe the underlining meaning or point of the spiritual analogy.
Somehow, like magic, it is ok to use spiritual language, speak and jargon, but it is not ok to use the common english language.
