What is Shoshin, the mind of Aikido, Kyudo......

"Even if we dedicate a lifetime, we will not be able to master it. 

If we keep this in our mind we can continue further.

 This is one of the things I was taught by my Sensei and

 I will not forget. I strive to practice everyday feeling like a beginner.

The Source of Aikido Techniques

He told us: "Aikido originally didn't have any form. 

The movements of the body in response to one’s state of mind became the techniques." 

(Rinjiro Shirata Sensei discussing Aikido instruction from O' Sensei)
