I'd suggest more mastery of Mind is appropriate since major portions of the mind are being shut down and I'd throw Dimensional Science into the mix if the goal is to prevent Awakening. Prime is needed as well if it's a Prime effect.

Life 4 would be fine for just ability score increases and if you added Mind 2 or 3, the Mind could be focused to not think about abstract thoughts. Enlightenment doesn't come from merely counting, so if you go with the Mr. Gradagrind from Dickens' Hard Times who wants only facts, a person trained and manipulated to think that isn't going to Awaken.
