Step 2 - visualisation and auditory exercises

["newbieonekenhobby" <newbieonekenhobby@...>]

I don't really have problems "hearing" sounds during 5 whole minutes 
even in a noisy environment, but it happens that fugitive images of 
a clock or of a hammer cross my mind (as mentionned in IIH) which I 
quickly dismiss.

I'd like to know whether those images alone are also considered as 
disruptions even if the sound is maintained normally.

Another question concerning visualisation. I had the strong 
sensation that visualising with open yes was an "quasi act of 
creation" somewhere, contrary to the same exercise with closed eyes. 
Did anybody feel the same, or am I the only one being played tricks 
by his imagination ?

Many thanks.
