我们为什么有依赖心理？精神上，我们依赖信仰、体系、哲学，我们向别人讨教行为方式，我们追寻导师为我们指点人生道路，指引我们获得希望与幸福，所以我们总是追寻依赖感与安全感。那么，心灵能不能放下依赖，得大自在？这并不是说，心灵必须追逐独立感，所谓独立感只是对依赖感的逆反，我们所探讨的并不是从某状态挣脱而获得独立感。如果我们能放下挣脱依赖的逆反心态，就能探究得更加深入。
我们认为依赖感是必不可少、不可避免的，我们对此从不质疑，从未追问一下：为什么人人都追寻依赖感？难道不是因为我们内心深处真切地渴求安全与稳定吗？当我们陷入困惑，总渴望别人把我们拉出来。我们总是沉湎于如何逃脱或回避当下的状态，就在逃避过程中，必然生出依赖感，成为控制我们的威权。如果我们依赖他人来获得内在的安全与幸福，那么这依赖感必滋生出无数新问题，等待我们去解决，其实都是执着心的问题。
但我们从不质疑、从未探究过依赖心理。也许，如果我们以真正的智慧、全部的觉知，深入探究这一问题，会发现依赖根本不是个问题，那只是逃避深层真相的方式而已。

We Never Question the Problem of Dependence
Why do we depend? Psychologically, inwardly, we depend on a belief, on a system, on a philosophy; we ask another for a mode of conduct; we seek teachers who will give us a way of life which will lead us to some hope, some happiness. So we are always, are we not, searching for some kind of dependence, security.Is it possible for the mind ever to free itself from this sense of dependence? Which does not mean that the mind must achieve independence—that is only the reaction to dependence. We are not talking of independence, of freedom from a particular state. If we can inquire without the reaction of seeking freedom from a particular state of dependence, then we can go much more deeply into it….
We accept the necessity for dependence; we say it is inevitable. We have never questioned the whole issue at all, why each one of us seeks some kind of dependence. Is it not that we really, deep down, demand security, permanency? Being in a state of confusion, we want someone to get us out of that confusion. So, we are always concerned with how to escape or avoid the state in which we are. In the process of avoiding that state, we are bound to create some kind of dependence, which becomes our authority. If we depend on another for our security, for our inward well-being, there arise out of that dependence innumerable problems, and then we try to solve those problems—the problems of attachment.
But we never question, we never go into the problem of dependence itself. Perhaps if we can really intelligently, with full awareness, go into this problem, then we may find that dependence is not the issue at all—that it is only a way of escaping from a deeper fact.
