do we really need a higher power,internal or external?we are responsible for our actions,and the results thereof.

In this case, "higher" power is less than useful imagry. "Connective" power would be more to the point. Like waves in the ocean. The ocean is the connecting power for the waves.

I think this perspective is consistent with Buddhism, which also sees a connection between all things -- without invoking God or gods.
