1 Antarmukhi 'Antar' = Inward + 'Mukhi' = Faced. Though this word is the opposite word for 'Bahiramukhi', implying 'Introversion', it does not mean introversion of sense organs per se! Sense organs are not meant to be kept turned inward. They have to do their innocuous work of life preservation. The word 'introversion', actually connotes to educating the ego ridden mind, to 'self-observe' with diligence of AWARENESS. It is to come upon the illusive nature of one's stubborn sense of individuality through acute ATTENTION. It is to 'Choicelessly-Witness' within, as to how the egoistic fears and desires germinate and exert immense pressure, which gets expressed as 'Abnormal Behaviors'. It is also to realize, that all our efforts of 'on the surface' correction and as well suppressions, only deepen the dis-ease of EGO and irretrievably complex our make-believe existential difficulties.(The issues in our midst may be are fictional, but the reactions they unleash are factually destructive. This should be noted without fail). 'Introversion' is also to KNOW without a trace of doubt, that there is no other force, except our own initiative of 'CHOICELESS ATTENTION', which can both expose and also radically cure our ego ailment. Completely emptying of our consciousness to regain purity within is, only possible through the decisive introversion (Antarmukhi). This state is to surrender, one's entire vitality unfragmented to the very basic issue of existence.
