The way mind processes data reflects in its offspring, the computer.
However, the coordination capabilities of latter improve continuously, whereas mind seems to have problems handling the increase of external & internal, objective & subjective data.
More often than not, this is blamed on its hardware, i.e. the physiological aspects, yet rarely on the programs that coordinate the data, despite that many of them are obviously outdated, inefficient, hijacked by emotions and/or malwares which question the capabilities and sometimes even deny the functions of mind, thus impeding the possibility to repair & update its software.
But to alter something requires knowledge and understanding of its structures and dynamics – in this case of the mind. Lamentably, the mind of Sapiens knows more about molecules and galaxies than about itself.
Not because Self-knowledge is an impossible task – after all everyone spends a lifetime with/in his/her mind – but because of millennia of systematic self-denial and subjection to external, superior, eternal etc powers called god, fate and whatever else seems suitable to cover up a lack of Self-responsibility.
Admittedly, Self-response-ability can be a pain in the butt – yet it can also be a blessing, as it may entail the realisation that all (external/internal/subjective/ objective) phenomenon are interrelated - and coordinated by/in the mind…

What else is there in this universe connecting our being with the world except experiencing?

There are possibly as many opinions about mind, as there are users – yet, most of them agree that mind plays a central role in their life.

mind gets into trouble when applying off/on, good/bad, yes/no switches, as they tend to impede the flow of data that constitute mind.

It is cruel to know, therefore, that the first thing that you can't trust at all (for lack of a verification process) are your very senses.

You mean, mind is but another word for d*ck? Either that, or you must be a female user. No male would mistake the two and no male would put them in that fatally wrong ranking order.

Being great enough to pervade the whole Universe, mind should not be busied with idle talks

Agree. But one man's idle is another's important.

Self is the core and coordinate of mind – Will & Love is the force of Self.

Nice!
I see that unfortunately the programs are uploaded into the minds of our youth, and that the programmers aren't necessarily capable. Such that much of their programming is "garbage in," so we shouldn't be too surprised when there is, "garbage out." It's sometimes hard indeed to reprogram oneself, as it often takes much time to feel ones way through the truth of things, such that reprogramming can take place, especially due to peer pressure, as they say, humans are social animals. But as long as each of us, no matter what degree of flawed programming, try and find the truth, so as to reprogram, we are on the right track of malware elimination.

The coordinate, or Self, of mind informs what is beneficial for it.
Self is not to be sought after, subjected to the feedback-mechanism of the intellect, or otherwise constrained – but be wholehearted/minded embraced.

The reflection/projection capability of mind is the cause of many of its controversies – and their solution as well, as it can bring about a self-awareness that supersedes subjective-objective, internal-external & other dualisms.
