Healing is a Process of Conscious Change

In order to change the world, we have to begin by changing ourselves.

We have to change our consciousness.

Healing our world begins with healing our hearts.

Healing our hearts allows us to live in the world with greater compassion.

In order to manifest the beautiful world that O’Sensei envisioned, we must practice daily to cultivate and embody the qualities of

Truth ~ Goodness ~ Beauty ~ Love

Cultivate a healthy body, clear mind, open heart and vibrant spirit.

O'Sensei's Core Teachings

  • True Victory is Self Victory done Swiftly  
  • Victory means to utterly defeat the mind of contention that exists within. 
  • Align to your Purpose and the Universe will Support You
  • True budo is to set things aright, to establish world peace and to nourish and protect all things with the power of love.
  • Aikido is the Study of Spirit
  • Love is like the rays of the sun, bathing everything in light.

 

Following WWII, O’Sensei declared: 

“From here forward the warriors of Aikido will practice to protect the environment, prevent war and serve society.”
