More quotes by Morihei Ueshiba
Each person is the universe from a particular perspective.
Morihei Ueshiba
The key to good technique is to keep your hands, feet, and hips straight and centered. If you are centered, you can move freely.
Morihei Ueshiba
Those who have a warped mind, a mind of discord, have been defeated from the beginning.
Morihei Ueshiba

Morihei Ueshiba
The Art of Peace begins with you.
Morihei Ueshiba
Seeing me before him, / The adversary attacks, / But by that time / I am already standing / Safely behind him.
Morihei Ueshiba
It is necessary to develop a strategy that utilizes all the physical conditions and elements that are directly at hand. The best strategy relies upon an unlimited set of responses.
Morihei Ueshiba
Those who are possessed by nothing possess everything.
Morihei Ueshiba
Always keep your mind as bright and clear as the vast sky, the great ocean, and the highest peak, empty of all thoughts. Always keep your body filled with light and heat. Fill yourself with the power of wisdom and enlightenment.
Morihei Ueshiba
Now and again, it is necessary to seclude yourself among deep mountain and hidden valleys to restore your link to the source of life.
Morihei Ueshiba
Progress comes to those who train and train reliance on secret techniques will get you nowhere.
Morihei Ueshiba
IN THE ART OF PEACE we never attack. An attack is proof that one is out of control. Never run away from any 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.
Morihei Ueshiba
Nonresistance is one of the principles of aikido. Because there is no resistance, you have won before even starting. People whose minds are evil or who enjoy fighting are defeated without a fight.
Morihei Ueshiba
The divine is not something high above us. It is in heaven, it is in earth, it is inside us.
Morihei Ueshiba
The Art of Peace is based on four Great Virtues: Bravery, Wisdom, Love, and Friendship, symbolized by Fire, Heaven, Earth, and Water.
Morihei Ueshiba
INSTRUCTORS CAN impart a fraction of the teaching. It is through your own devoted practice that the mysteries of the Art of Peace are brought to life.
Morihei Ueshiba
The best strategy relies upon an unlimited set of responses.
Morihei Ueshiba
Create each day anew by clothing yourself with heaven and earth, bathing yourself with wisdom and love, and placing yourself in the heart of Mother Nature.
Morihei Ueshiba
LIFE IS A DIVINE GIFT. The divine is not something outside of us it is right in our very center it is our freedom. In our training, we learn the real nature of life and death. When life is victorious, there is birth when it is thwarted, there is death. A warrior is always engaged in a life-and-death struggle for peace.
Morihei Ueshiba
