Why do we bear arms at the slightest miscommunication? Our relationship with our ego craves always to be right.

Why is there so much energy given to the art of war? The art of peace requires so little!

To train a life time acquiring skills of self-defence only to seek retribution in the destruction of others becomes a wasted journey; a path of self-destruction.

Respect should always be offered to the opponent first. Often this can lead an attitude of dis-harmony into a peaceful resolution.

The ultimate goal of Aikido attained is seeing yourself and the world through eyes that are non-confrontational.

To hate or to not hate an enemy! It starts within your mind! Train to see all from the same perspective.

To view one as an enemy is to see ourselves without having any wrong.

Treat others in the way you would like to be treated and a harmony shall exist.
