They make no mention of meditation.
In meditation we address attention directly. It is what we study. It is the wood we whittle.
We get great control over attention. What we attend to and how perfectly we hold our attention upon it.
Also, we have another trick. To refrain from paying attention to anything. It is named variously Vipassana, Zazen, Asamprajnata Dhyana... depending on the tradition.
It's impressive.
Consider how paying attention is a reductive process. Ie : given your perspective, choose some part of it and restrict your attention to that. Thus your perspective is reduced.
You might say that Vipassana achieves the opposite.
