The ultimate goal of Aikido attained is seeing yourself and the world through eyes that are non-confrontational.

Training in a martial art has no end, just a beginning.

If you study the martial arts with aggression and malice this will eventually bring you to view the world from a fearful place.

Your brain doesn’t always understand what your eyes see. Training is the only option to unlock the many facets to the martial arts.

It takes greater courage to lead by truth than to lead with fear and deception.

To hate or to not hate an enemy! It starts within your mind! Train to see all from the same perspective.

To defeat an enemy with compassion over aggression will take great understanding. Introduce this as a part of your life’s philosophy.

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.

We are all of this earth, do not fight or lay greed. The earth is plentiful if we can all learn to share it.

Love never destroys; hate in itself bears the scars of countless battles.
