More quotes by Morihei Ueshiba
Your heart is full of fertile seeds, waiting to sprout.
Morihei Ueshiba
Ultimately, you must forget about technique. The further you progress, the fewer teachings there are. The Great Path is really NO PATH.
Morihei Ueshiba
THE ART OF PEACE is not easy. It is a fight to the finish, the slaying of evil desires and all falsehood within. On occasion the voice of peace resounds like thunder, jolting human beings out of their stupor.
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
The Art of Peace is medicine for a sick world. There is evil and disorder in the world, because people have forgotten that all things emanate from one source. Return to that source and leave behind all self-centered thoughts, petty desires, and anger. Those who are possessed by nothing possess everything.
Morihei Ueshiba
Progress comes to those who train and train reliance on secret techniques will get you nowhere.
Morihei Ueshiba
Focus on stillness, rather than on movement
Morihei Ueshiba
The realization of our true substance and potential is the purpose of creation.
Morihei Ueshiba
Aikido is the principle of non-resistance. Because it is non-resistant, it is victorious from the beginning. Those with evil intentions or contentious thoughts are instantly vanquished. Aikido is invincible because it contends with nothing.
Morihei Ueshiba
True victory is victory over oneself.
Morihei Ueshiba
Those who are possessed by nothing possess everything.
Morihei Ueshiba
The art of Peace I practice has room for each of the world's eight million gods, and I cooperate with them all. The God of Peace is very great and enjoins all that is divine and enlightened in every land.
Morihei Ueshiba
YOUR HEART IS FULL of fertile seeds, waiting to sprout. Just as a lotus flower springs from the mire to bloom splendidly, the interaction of the cosmic breath causes the flower of the spirit to bloom and bear fruit in this world.
Morihei Ueshiba
True Budo is to accept the spirit of the universe, keep the peace of the world, correctly produce, protect and cultivate all beings in nature.
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
PRACTICE THE Art of Peace sincerely, and evil thoughts and deeds will naturally disappear. The only desire that should remain is the thirst for more and more training in the Way.
Morihei Ueshiba
You are here for no other purpose than to realize your inner divinity and manifest your inner enlightenment.
Morihei Ueshiba
Shihonage is the foundation of Aikido. All you ever need to master is shihonage.
Morihei Ueshiba
The best strategy relies upon an unlimited set of responses.
Morihei Ueshiba
CONTEMPLATE THE workings of this world, listen to the words of the wise, and take all that is good as your own. With this as your base, open your own door to truth. Do not overlook the truth that is right before you.
Morihei Ueshiba
