Learning to receive holds like nikkyo, sankyo, kotegashi etc. Is the study of extending ki out of an arm that is constantly flexible.
The true martial artist has a caring spirit that sees all as one.
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.
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.
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.
The enlightened martial artist sees no enemy but the one within.
Respect should always be offered to the opponent first. Often this can lead an attitude of dis-harmony into a peaceful resolution.
To care for others is the real martial art. To not care shows a disregard for yourself and the universe.
Uke’s part in trying to hold nage with strength within the technique, teaches spiritual & physical flexibility.
