question:Can you tell me more about what Aikido teaches about love and harmony?

answer:Aikido, as founded by Morihei Ueshiba Sensei, teaches that practitioners should strive to achieve love and harmony with those around them. At its core, Aikido is a martial art that promotes non-violent conflict resolution and emphasizes the importance of self-improvement along with the improvement of others. Rather than focusing on defeating an opponent, Aikido teaches that practitioners should try to resolve a situation peacefully and harmoniously. ŌSensei believed that Aikido was not merely a technique for self-defense, but a way of living one's life in harmony with the natural world and the universe. He believed that the practice of Aikido could help individuals to overcome their ego and become more aware of the interconnectedness of all things.

This heightened awareness allows individuals to better understand the needs and motivations of others, thereby facilitating the peaceful resolution of conflicts. Overall, Aikido emphasizes the importance of non-violent conflict resolution, empathy, and mutual respect to promote love and harmony within oneself and with others.

Of descending night! fair is thy light in the west ! thou liftest thy unshorn head from thy cloud : thy steps are stately on thy hill. What dost thou behold in the plain ? The stormy winds are laid.
