More quotes by Koichi Tohei
Be vigorous and full of energy, and make ceaseless efforts. This means that little things do not discourage you and that you approach all things boldly and with an attitude of determination.
Koichi Tohei
Countless people have attempted to define the absolute power of the world of nature. Some praise it as god, some call it the Buddha, others call it truth. Still others convert nature into a philosophy by which they attempt to sound its deepest truth. Such attempts to define the power of nature are no more than striving to escape its effects.
Koichi Tohei
Let us have a Universal Mind that loves and protects all creation and helps all things grow and develop. To unify mind and body and become one with the Universe is the ultimate purpose of our study.
Koichi Tohei
Pour some water into a tub and stir it up. Now try as hard as you can to calm the water with your hands you will succeed in agitating it further. Let it stand undisturbed a while, and it will calm down by itself. The human brain works much the same way.
Koichi Tohei
Power of mind is infinite while brawn is limited.
Koichi Tohei
When you coordinate your mind and body, you have unlimited access to the wisdom of the universe.
Koichi Tohei
Even if a hundred ton boulder should fall, I would be safe! When I say this, everyone laughs and wonders how. No need to try to stop it, just move out of the way. You do not have a problem if you do not try to take it on yourself. Most people suffer because they try to take upon themselves things which they do not need to.
Koichi Tohei
There is no conflict in the absolute universe, but there is conflict in the relative world.
