What does Foyan mean by 'think independently'?

When you sit meditating and enter into absorption, you should have no concerns or problems in yourself. Try to think independently, all by yourself. Other people don't know what you're doing all the time.

Now it does make sense to presume thinking as thinking non-thinking - I get that maybe, but I'm not sure about 'independent'. Does one become purely subjective by putting everything into 'independence'? I'm not really sure, but after reading this statement the for the first time, I felt I inherently knew what was meant by independent. And practising thus it felt like I was grounding myself and gathering invigorating energy into some place around the head. As though I had begun to _focus_ intensely.

Basically what I seem to stumbled upon, technique-wise, is quite interesting, but I really have no idea if that is what was meant lol
