Learning to receive holds like nikkyo, sankyo, kotegashi etc. Is the study of extending ki out of an arm that is constantly flexible.
Martial arts are not studied to enhance aggression, but to train the spirit to reveal flaws for ones own self correction.
Martial Arts should not focus entirely on the destruction of an enemy but in ways it can strive to embrace the enemy.
To hate is to know love. Strive to love over hate, if we are all to survive.
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.

Martial arts should not be a platform for displaying the ego. Methods that do can lead one down a wrong path.
The use of aggression for the martial artist is to cover up there anger and or fear. This contributes to their miss-understanding to truly know themselves.
Why do we study a lifetime of fighting within the martial arts? To seek a peaceful path to enlightenment.
