"There are three stages in one’s overall development. There is dependence. There is independence. And there is interdependence." [1]
With Higher Purpose
"Relationship at the level of interdependence is rare and very special." [1]
"True interdependence is not simply interdependence between two individuals or interdependence within a spiritual community. Real interdependence is being guided by Knowledge and united with others at the level of Knowledge." [1]
"It is not only interdependence with others from a place of power and responsibility. It is interdependence with God and with those Unseen Forces who are working on behalf of the Creator of all life. They are depending upon you. You are depending upon them. They are communicating to you and through you, and they need you to become a representative of a greater power and presence in life. You need them because they are fulfilling your destiny. They are giving you power and strength and wisdom that you cannot provide for yourself." [1]
Within Oneself
"Now your body, your mind and your spirit are working in concert with one another." [1]
In Marriage
"In essence, stage one is about dependence. Stage two is about independence. And stage three is about interdependence—dependence, independence and interdependence. Marriage in stage one is about building security and reinforcing dependence. This fundamentally opposes personal honesty and the emergence of Knowledge. Marriage in stage two is more about people discovering and differentiating themselves by learning to think and act independently. This produces personal growth but makes the prospect of attaining real union and commitment in relationship very difficult to establish. Attempting marriage in the first two stages is very difficult." [2]
In the Greater Community
"This is the case in nations that rely upon one another for resources. They become ever more like one another, even though they are still distinct societies. They are forced to conform to a certain degree because of their interdependence." [3]
