Turning mind inwards?

What does it mean? Mind inwards or outwards? I've heard and read it, but never got what exactly it means. Is it like when you turn mind inwards you are observing yourself, when mind is outwards you observe surroundings and forget self?

You are observing your mind, your mind is observing whatever you thought you were observing before you realize that you were really just observing your mind. I guess if your mind is turned outwards, you're just thinking about your surroundings and all that. When your mind is turned inwards, you are observing your mind which is observing your mind observing your mind observing your mind... ect. I think LSD and deep meditation can take you there among other things, but I'm mostly talking out of my ass about this. Hope it helps though.

Hmm within you without you? Watch this shit 10x then report back.

the human race will not be able to enter godhood until they realize the earth is a motor and start to generate the power to free humanity from the physical world.
we need to transmute and become alchemists

 If you're frightened of dying and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth.

When you eliminate the outside , there is nowhere else for the mind to turn but "inward". Thats why i eat mushrooms in silent darkness
