Aikido and the Harmony of Nature. The movements of Aikido are circular and flowing. The movement and energy of an attack is redirected without the need for collision or the use of force. How do we deal with negativity on a daily basis? Jul 1, 2013 - Aikido's philosophies extend beyond the mat. Sep 8, 2011 - Aikido – a martial art founded last century by Morihei Ueshiba O-Sensei – is non-violent, and strives to achieve harmony with nature, others, and oneself. Central to Aikido is the idea of being in harmony with your opponents, rather than in conflict with them. Jan 6, 2014 - However, this book was really useful in helping me to understand that Aikido is part of the radical critique of an economic and political system that alienates us from our labor, from nature, from one another, and from the ability to realize our full human potential. The physical practice of this fundamental principle of Aikido leads to a better understanding of people and nature, while teaching essential skills for the resolution of conflict. Nov 1, 2010 - Aikido can be loosely translated as “the way of harmony with nature or life/universal energy.” The idea was to create an art based on non-resistance – one that seeks to resolve rather than oppose. "The spirit of aikido is harmony with another's energy," instructor David Villanueva said. Its lessons in harmony apply to conflict that isn't physical in nature. The ethical imperative of aikido involves protecting one's adversary from harm, using the least force necessary, and, when possible, transforming aggression into cooperation. As Anno Sensei The spirit of harmony, love, and gratitude, essential to us as human beings, has been swept aside in the focus on material affluence, and there is a growing sense of unease and confusion. Jun 28, 2010 - I have been carrying around Ueshiba's inspiring book Art of Peace with me for years. Those trained in aikido are taught the importance of nature and energy.
