The Third Dance

I am being struck by E. F. Schumacher's assertion that the beginnings of life, it is need to have a high dependence of outer authority. Then it is needed to move beyond the outer authority and discover one's inner authority. Most people believe that this stage is enlightenment. Third stage is the dance between the first two stages. To get to the third stage, one must go through a great death or humilation of the ego. I don't have to be afraid or paranoid of traditional people or concepts.
