Real Dialogue Is Where Two Or More

A Corporation Is Organized As A System - It Has This Department, That Department, That Department... They Don't Have Any Meaning Separately; They Only Can Function Together. And Also The Body Is A System. Society Is A System In Some Sense. And So On.

Dialogue Is A Space Where We May See The Assumptions Which Lay Beneath The Surface Of Our Thoughts, Assumptions Which Drive Us, Assumptions Around Which We Build Organizations, Create Economies, Form Nations And Religions. These Assumptions Become Habitual, Mental Habits That Drive Us, Confuse Us And Prevent Our Responding Intelligently To The Challenges We Face Every Day.

What Is Needed Is To Learn Afresh, To Observe, And To Discover For Ourselves The Meaning Of Wholeness.
