This is a wonderful article. Thank you for putting it together. Consciousness surely is poorly defined, yet we all vaguely know what it is referring to. That being said, not having a clear definition can make our discussions challenging. In my book, The Ancient Way of the Mind, I choose to define consciousness as the "experience of life". In tandem with exploring the neuroscience of how the brain generates the sense of the self, I use this definition of consciousness to try and distinguish between the experienced self from, what I call, the true Self.

I am excited to announce the release of my book:
The Ancient Way of the Mind: How Modern Thinking Blinds Us From Wisdom of the Past
The book focuses on the nature of the self, and how our relationship with the self influences our ability to understand reality.
Years of research has resulted in a narrative that weaves together the neuroscience of meditation, a perspective on the development of world religions, and how the computer rectifies aspects of society that are issues resulting from our abstract thinking (language, money, etc).
