"Dialogue can at times be truly magical, dissolving the boundaries between us and the world and opening up wellsprings of realization and resonant power. In those rare, deeply healing moments of dialogue in its most ideal form, we may experience the wholeness of who we are.." So says Tom Atlee who authors the Co-Intelligence Institute at www.cointelligence.org. We define dialogue as constructive discourse between two or more people about a specific subject. By constructive discourse, we mean discourse that is meaningful to the parties involved and that produces greater understanding of the subject under discussion. Ultimately this means a greater understanding of truth and the way things are in reality, which includes solutions of problems and coming to terms or agreement between the parties involved. The Ten Precepts of Dialogue are rules which when followed produce the above results. The Ten Precepts of Dialogue are the communicator's "Bill of Rights" so to speak, which encompass our ground rules for meaningful communication..
