Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969) - O'Sensei - was a prominent practioner of the Japanese martial arts, from which he developed an entirely new style, Aikido. For him, this martial art was much more than just a combat technique: it is based crucially on Ki, an energy flow in humans themselves, which can be intensified by the related cosmic energy. Aikido never uses physical force in countering an attack, but aims at harmony combined with practicing non-resistance. O'Sensei's astonishing performances were attributed not to his renowned technical skill, but primarily to his spiritual orientation. As he saw it himself. Physical, metaphysical, and spiritual aspects of Aikido indicated by its creator and put into practice are described in this booklet with his practical directions for Aikido. Essential forces in the universe and corresponding concepts instructive for martial arts, as Ai, Ki and Takemusu Aiki, are clarified. To find your own way as well. O'Sensei's wording has been followed closely, but the writer's systematic approach clarifies the coherence in this overview of his thinking. It shows how Ueshiba connects his religious vision on harmony in the universe with what one would not easily expect: an effective modern martial art developed from Japanese traditions.P.P.J. Overvoorde is philosopher and on his way in Aikido.
