Ueshiba Morihei: Comprehending the Universe

Ueshiba Morihei Art

What is the most popular reason to engage in martial arts? Obviously, to become stronger and more fearless, to develop the skills to protect yourself and your closest ones in the time of danger and simply to become more attractive. Nevertheless, despite MA's significant advantages, there is a negative aspect: almost all of the styles are connected with a certain degree of inevitable violence and physical harm. Completely excluding aggression and calming down your emotions is not an easy task even for a well-prepared fighter. Is there a solution?

Take a look at the Art of Peace created by the great master Ueshiba Morihei―to become a truly strong and courageous warrior, one absolutely does not have to accumulate aggression inside. Quite the contrary, actually: only kindness and love for all beings make a person a flawless warrior; they elevate your soul and bring you into harmony with the energy of the Universe. Channeling the supreme Source, a Warrior gains spiritual powers and develops the sixth sense that helps to percept the undercurrents of any situation.

In the painting "Comprehending the Universe", the founder of Aikido Ueshiba Morihei holds a triple tomoe in his hands, the symbol of cosmic energies, and this living fire engulfs him like a mantle of ancient knowledge. The painting is suitable for dojos and sports halls. It reminds us that there are not only the psysical and philosophical side to any martial art, but also a spiritual one. Having comprehended the latter, we can understand the first two much better.

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.
Each and every master, regardless of the era or the place, heard the call and attained harmony with heaven and earth. There are many paths leading to the top of Mount Fuji, but there is only one summit―love.
All life is a manifestation of the spirit, the manifestation of love.
― Morihei Ueshiba
