My take
So the ball encounters the clubface. And stays on it for a defining moment. During that moment the ball will experience a delivery of kinetical energy. The amount delivered will be proportional to the difference in clubhead speed before and after separation.

The ball does not volontarily move. The ball "tries to stop the clubhead". If the ball succeeds there will be no golf. So we'd better deliver a very clear message.

So how can we make sure the ball gets the idea?

By telling the hands: Thou shalt not care about the ball. All you should care about is ending up swiveling on-plane at chest height. And by telling the eyes: If you are talking to someone you should look straight him straight in the eye.

All-in-all I believe what Yoda is saying that by telling the machine where and how we want the swivel - we can indirectly be more deliberate and heavy through the ball.
