1 " The true work of the martial arts is progress, not perfection "
2 " Nearly all samurai practice Zen - it is the Way of Enlightenment." " Possibly the light of Zen is so strong that it has blinded me to its virtue." Yoshitoki smiled. " It is very good discipline for the mind, as the martial arts are for the body." Kenmotsu looked very smug as he said this. " I do Zazen twice a week." " I think it will do no-one any harm, though personally I find it more pleasant to think than to empty my mind of thought. "
3 " Forgiveness is like the martial arts of consciousness. In aikido and other martial arts, we sidestep our attacker's force rather than resisting it. The energy of the attack then boomerangs back in the direction of the attacker. forgiveness works in the same way. When we attack back, and defense is a form of attack, we initiate a war which no one can win. "
