Outward-flowing consciousness (Yoga)

Seeing personality and consciousness as constituted of the information passing through the senses to the brain, individuals with this type of awareness (by far the majority) derive their excitement from contact between the dense senses and even denser sense-objects. Being dependent on these exterior sense-objects, such individuals can never be free or self-dependent unless, through an act of will and perhaps through contact with an individual of [inward-flowing consciousness]

, they reverse the outward flow of energy and realize their interior energies.
