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.
While performing the shomen uchi Ikkyo technique you must enter in first then raise your arms, not raise your arms then enter in.
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.
The study of being held strong reinforces & teaches Koichi Tohei’s 4 principles of Aikido. Relax completely (Physical) Keep one point (Spiritual) keep weight underside (Physical) Extend ki (Spiritual)
As there are opposites such as, positive and negative, yin and yang, war and peace. We should always strive to seek the art of peace.
Without some form of understanding of “ki”, the brain will always interpret technique from a physical perspective.
Treat others in the way you would like to be treated and a harmony shall exist.
Why is there so much energy given to the art of war? The art of peace requires so little!
