What does it mean to go inward?

Going inward is the courageous journey through the death of the ego, where you abandon secondhand knowledge and awaken to the living truth of your existence.

— Osho
According to Osho, going inward means abandoning secondhand, verbal ‘knowledge’ and entering direct, existential seeing where the mind’s substitutions stop and the ‘I’ dissolves. It is a courageous journey through the death of ego to living truth, not dictionary meanings. By waking from dreamlike beliefs and dropping hypocrisy, one becomes available to God, authenticity, and a unified life.

It’s turning from words and ideas to feel truth yourself by letting the bossy ‘I’ relax and fade away.
