Hello.
I have attached an image of a circuit. I don't understand why the current travels like the arrows I have painted there.
How should the current be flowing? If it is like i drew, then howcome the circled arrow is not turned around?
I would say the current goes from input to output and not the other way around.
Please help me understand. Many regards.

Within the passband the circuit has gain and is non-inverting. The output voltage will be higher than the input voltage. Current will flow from the higher to the lower voltage node.
