The title of the thread is the gist of what I read constantly around the various forums for stakeholders in Aikido.

still do not understand why not accept, and most importantly diminish the powerful spiritual component of the 'art of O' Sensei, not only by people who come to Aikido but also yudansha ....

just do not understand why we must judge the measure of aikido with other martial arts, especially do not understand why we must think I need aikido as a system of self-defense. Aikido in my opinion is more of a course of self-defense, because I am very convinced that there are disciplines much more effective and easy to learn.

I think we must approach with aikido aikido itself, aikido aikido to stop. All that is added is just more rhetoric, just words and unnecessary mental projections.

This does not mean that aikido can not be used as a defense, on the contrary, I want to say though that does not see the need to live with that purpose. As I said, for me it is something more.

How well do I understand why a judge must be right or wrong style of aikido. Everyone follows the style that most reflects her way of being: there is also a more aikido-oriented contact and connection to internal esiste un aikido più “fisico”. Perchè devo dire che l’aikido più “interno” è peggiore di un aikido più “fisico”? E’ solo un modo diverso di intenderlo.

Ho smesso di leggere i vari forum di arti marziali, personalmente trovo ci sia solo confusione e pochissima sostanza. L’aikido si deve fare sul tatami.

Anche dopo a clear summary of our Sensei, which exhausts most of my thirst for understanding of the problem, try ugualmete to say something.

Many times I remain amazed by the lack or total lack of openness to dialogue and mutual exchange, which some people manifest in the forums.

Art is a revelation, research, "Motion," technical expression, but also attitude, balance, expression of concentration, sacrifice transformed into a gift ... I think that Aikido contains all this and expands to infinity. Everything comes from the real needs of people facing the practice .. there must be a "motion" inner 's mind, otherwise you are doing something else.

From my point of view of a beginner I believe that words like "efficacy", "combat", "real" and so on. used in some areas, total loss of meaning in front of the great essence of 'Aikido, which can be expressed and found in every situation of life.

considerations of practical use only for me, not Aikido, but the result of a distorted view of the conviction to prevail on the next killer application of some kind of technical ... ... So I might as well give him another name
