The true martial artist has a caring spirit that sees all as one.

Without some form of understanding of “ki”, the brain will always interpret technique from a physical perspective.

Martial arts are not studied to enhance aggression, but to train the spirit to reveal flaws for ones own self correction.

To defeat an enemy with compassion over aggression will take great understanding. Introduce this as a part of your life’s philosophy.

To have no compassion in your martial art, shows a cover up of our most natural instinct; “fear”.

To understand compassion one must first live compassionately.

To understand Aikido’s many layers-consistency is the “ki”

Those who only seek destruction within the martial arts are disconnected to themselves and all fragile life.

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.

To seek the path of ego within the martial arts will seed jealousy and corruption.
