“Control of consciousness determines the quality of life.”
If consciousness is who/what we are — then who or what is controlling it, here? Presence is another word for being focused in awareness. This is a good article, offering much — yet we can go farther — which is also implied in your writing.
For me, it’s not control of mind, by mind, but finding the deeper Self, who is not dependent on nor found (only) within mind. We have a deeper Being, which can be the one doing the observing.
Mind is meant to be the servant, not the master of our life. ☼
