Day after day Train your heart out, Refining your technique: Use the One to strike the Many! That is the discipline of a Warrior - Morihei Ueshiba

In order to establish heaven on earth, we need a Budo that is pure in spirit, that is devoid of hatred and greed. It must follow natural principles and harmonize the material with the spiritual. Aikido means not to kill. Although nearly all creeds have a commandment against taking life, most of them justify killing for reason or another. In Aikido, however, we try to completely avoid killing, even the most evil person.

Warriorship is none other than the vitality that sustains all life.

A warrior is always engaged in a life-and-death struggle for peace.
