May the Kami of Earth and Heaven watch our acts of purification. - Morihei Ueshiba

The true meaning of the 'samurai' is one who serves and adheres to the power of love.

The Art of Peace is not easy. It is a fight to the finish, the slaying of evil desires and all falsehood within

In Aikido we never attack. An attack is proof that one is out of control. Never run away from any kind of challenge, but do not try to suppress or control an opponent unnaturally. Let attackers come any way they like and then blend with them. Never chase after opponents. Redirect each attack and get firmly behind it.
