“But when I sat listening with the other Aikido students and teachers on the mat at the Kumano Juku Dojo, all of us dripping with sweat and focused intently on the practice of Aikido in the here and now, the Floating Bridge of Heaven did not feel like an abstract reference to a story of the past. It was a vivid invitation to venture into the world of the spirit, and to integrate that sacred spirit of creativity into all of our actions.

“For some people, it is not easy to recognize positive attributes in others. That is why you must not take it to heart when someone says you are not good enough. Pay attention to how you think and what you allow in your mind. You cannot afford to let anyone determine your value in life. Make an effort to understand who you are. Distil your thoughts and beliefs so no one can bring you down.”

“If you try to learn with your intellect, it is more difficult to absorb the teachings on a deep level. The mind looks at something and says, I don't want that; I want this instead. But as you simply continue to train, something changes. What changes is deeper than your intellectual knowledge, deeper than mind or heart.”
