Don’t be attracted only to powerful techniques within a martial art you do see, but more in the peaceful path of what you don’t see.
Martial arts are not studied to enhance aggression, but to train the spirit to reveal flaws for ones own self correction.
The study of being held strong reinforces & teaches Koichi Tohei’s 4 principles of Aikido. Relax completely (Physical) Keep one point (Spiritual) keep weight underside (Physical) Extend ki (Spiritual)
A martial artist should always train the mind as well as the body, but not always moving in synchronization.
Learning to be soft when intimidated is the key to progress. If the ego will not yield to the attackers physical aggression a conflict of the physical to co-exist takes place. This restricts the true concepts of Aikido to be realised.
The ultimate goal of Aikido attained is seeing yourself and the world through eyes that are non-confrontational.
Compassion is a powerful word. In it contains all of what is martial and what is art. Yet without the years in its study one may not come to understand its true meaning.
All techniques must blend with your partner. If felt by their physical they will be resisted by their physical.
To hate or to not hate an enemy! It starts within your mind! Train to see all from the same perspective.
It is not aggression from the martial artist that you should fear! It’s the calm from the lack of aggression you should fear the most.
