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.
Compassion is a powerful word. In it contains all of what is martial and what is art. Yet without the years in its study one may not come to understand its true meaning.
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.
To show compassion is one of the highest values. Strive within your martial art to make this your priority.
Treat others in the way you would like to be treated and a harmony shall exist.

A martial artist should always train the mind as well as the body, but not always moving in synchronization.
To view one as an enemy is to see ourselves without having any wrong.
