Samvāda – dialogo

«With the Yajur-veda the performance takes place by murmuring (upāmshu).With the exception of addresses, replies, choosing of priests (pravara), dialogues, and commands» (Apastamba-yajna-paribhasa-sutra, 9-10). 

Samvāda generally indicates communication. It can be translated as “talking together”, “conversation”, “dialogue”, “discussion”, “debate”.

How do you relate to people, Sagittarius? Are you able to listen and accept the points of view of others? Or does ego, pride and arrogance block the real exchange? In fact, communication is an exchange, not a one-way street. It is not always certain that being so confident helps to mask uncertainties. Sometimes they are highlighted. Since Mars puts herself in a good aspect, consider expanding and improving your ability to communicate.

Awareness exercise

Have you ever noticed that when someone talks to you, you tend to think about an answer or something to say, before the other has even finished speaking? It is something that almost everyone does and that strongly undermines true communication. Basically it is an inability to listen. Practice listening this month, realize each time how mentally you are ready for the answer ahead of time.

Mantra of the month

«A real exchange».
