The pursuit of powerful aggression within martial arts are the most often sought. This only creates more distance from one another and will never be the answer. Seek the pathless path in your journey and all will become clear in time.
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.
Why do we bear arms at the slightest miscommunication? Our relationship with our ego craves always to be right.
To show compassion is one of the highest values. Strive within your martial art to make this your priority.
Have patience while walking the path of Aikido there really is no final destination. Study sincerely in the moment for today is what matters. Tomorrow will come all too soon. Reflect in the journey this is the ultimate goal.
Martial arts should not be a platform for displaying the ego. Methods that do can lead one down a wrong path.
Your brain doesn’t always understand what your eyes see. Training is the only option to unlock the many facets to the martial arts.
There really are no throws in Aikido only the art of leading your partners ki with your ki in a unified direction. Anything other than this opposes harmony and will inevitably be a throw.
