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

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.

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

A martial artist should not be measured on their ability to hurt or destroy an enemy but how they can change aggression into the art of peace.

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.

Martial Arts should not focus entirely on the destruction of an enemy but in ways it can strive to embrace the enemy.

Martial arts should not be a platform for displaying the ego. Methods that do can lead one down a wrong path.
