Hi everyone,
Many of you have asked how the seminar series has been going. I have
received some snippets of information on how the world tour is going from
Elisabeth Andel and Valerie Williams Sensei... For your enjoyment. By all
accounts it is developing nicely and there is a lot of excitement about
Maruyama Sensei's return.
Best wishes,
Danny

For those who can remember "the way of the warriors" a documentary about the martial arts around the world shown on Channels 12 many years back, here's something similar.
Yoshinkan Aikido is featured as the martial art Japan.
Cheers.

Question: <<Your teaching focuses on ki; perhaps you could start by
telling us how this ki differs from qigong (pronounced "chee goong"),
the Chinese version currently popular in Japan?>>
It depends whether or not you are working with the universe as the
object of your efforts. But, first let's look at the word itself. The
written character for ki originated in China. Originally Japan has no
writing system of its own, so it imported the ideographic system of
Han
Dynasty China (202 BCE - 220 CE). We call these characters kanji in
Japanese, from kan, the Japanese pronunciation of Han, and ji, meaning
characters. Once imported, each character took on two different
readings, one approximating the original Chinese and one which was the
Japanese pronunciation for the word the character represented.
One good example would be the word kagami (mirror). Japanese
originally
had the word mizukagami, which literally means "water mirror." Priot
to
the invention of mirrors, people would fill an unglazed vessel with
water, let it stand until the surface of the water became still, and
use that to see their reflection. The syllable sin the work kagami
came
from ka (fictitious), ga (self), and mi (see). When metal mirrors,
called kyo in Chinese, were later introduced, the Japanese retained
the
original Chinese reading of the character kyo, but also used the naive
word kagami. These two words, kyo and kagami, mean exactly the same
thing in Japanese, but the word kagami would be completely
incomprehensible in Chinese.
It is the same for the character for person (hito). Its original
meaning in Chinese, based on its shape (which shows two people leaving
on each other) was to the effect that "people must rely on one another
to get along in the world." In Japanese we retain the readings nin and
jin that approximate the original Chinese, but we also have the
Japanese reading hito. Like mizukagami, the word hito existed in Japan
prior to the introduction of Chinese characters. It comes from the
classical language of Japanese spirituality, with a specific
connection
to the word naohi (direct spirit). The syllable hi expressed the
spirit
of the universe, and when this spirit coalesces into a physical form,
you have hito ("spirit-stop") - a person. The same applies to the word
kokyu (breath); I teach my students to exhale with "haaah" sound and
inhale with a "suuuh" sound-in other words, to use the more natural
pronunciation instead of the words themselves. Whole-body breathing
would be impossible if you tried to exhale with the sound "koooh" an
inhale with the sound "kyuuuh" (i.e. kokyu).
From these examples, you can see that in Chinese it is the shapes of
the characters that five them meaning, while in Japanese it is the
sound.
Which brings us finally to ki, which is the Japanese pronunciation of
the Chinese chi. (Now spelled Qi, to make matters even more
confusing -
Ed.) In Japan, the syllable, ki, expresses the meaning "spirit of the
universe." In Japanese there are about 900 different words that
contain
the syllable!
It was after I had already disseminated the word ki throughout the
world that the Chinese qigong practitioners started imitating it.
Around the time I first went o Hawaii, in 1953, the use of the word qi
and qigong had been completely banned in China under the Communist
ideology. I must confess, I really wondered how they could ban
something as universal as ki, but those were the conditions prevailing
during the time I was teaching about ki. People came to Hawaii from
all
over the world to participate in my classes there, and the concept of
ki therefore spread very quickly.
Seeing this, the Chinese subsequently lifted the ban on the word qi in
1958-about five years after I began teaching it-and qigong
practitioners started popping up like bamboo shoots after the rain.
There were even some Chinese qigong teachers in Hawaii who claimed
that
the ki I was talking about had come from China, and so on and so
forth,
despite the fact that the Chinese themselves banned the very word!
The Japan Broadcasting Corporation (NHK) once did a special feature on
qigong. They tried a variety of different experiments to test it, but
they didn't get even a fraction of the results they were hoping for.
They were rather at a loss about what to think when they then learned
of the existence of our Ki no Kenkyukai (Ki Research Society). I
happened to be out when they called, but Otsuka (8th dan, Ki no
Kenkyukai managing director) talked with them. He explained that he
didn't know anything about qigong, but that ki is indeed something
real, and that the things we teach about ki can be done anywhere by
anyone at any time.
For something to be scientifically verifiable it must be both
universal
and reproducible. The things we teach about ki can be reproduced at
any
time, not just when we're feeling well and not when we're feeling
poorly - whenever, wherever, by whomever, as many times as needed;
otherwise it's impossible to create scientific data. Science is built
on universality and reproducibility.
On the other hand, there are many aspects of Eastern medicine and
philosophy that have not been substantively verified. Eastern herbal
remedies seem to be effective at some times and ineffective at others.
These things follow their own logic, but universality and
reproducibility should extend to them. It may be that our study of
them
is still incomplete.
Since science began accepting concepts like the infinite ad
infinitesimal, we seem to have become unable to discern which of our
studies reflect reality and which do not. This has, in turn, left to a
tendency to think that everything we don't understand must somehow
still exist. This is the way ki is generally interpreted in the world
today, with people thinking it must exist because it seems
inaccessible
or esoteric.
This occult-style ki just isn't possible. That which does not exist
simply does not exist, and that's the end of it! Knocking someone over
by glaring at them, for example: it's so obvious that that sort of
thing is fraudulent. It's just not possible! There are some who would
say that nobody knows aikido better than I do, right? So if I focus a
concentrated glare on you, are you going to fall over? I doubt it!
Many people were surprised that I was able to throw the sumo wrestler
Kurosegawa, seemingly without touching him. People think, "Tohei can
throw people without touching them!" But that's not right. I may not
have been touching him with my hands, but I was touching him with my
ki. A person that comes rushing forward to attack is preceded by his
ki, and wherever that ki goes, his body is obliged to follow. (This is
why it is impossible to throw people who are not really intending to
attack you.) So all I had to do was evade his ki; I simply let him go
where he seemed to want to go, and he fell of his own accord.
Ki is something that is conveyed from one person to another. If you
like someone a lot, that person is bound to pick up on your feeling.
The only reason it is possible for me to throw a very large individual
who is moving in with a strike or other attack is that I am able to
grasp his mind, his intention, the instant it manifests itself.
This is one of the things that Ueshiba Sensei truly wanted to teach.
Much of the aikido we see today has degenerated into mere fighting. I
call what I do Shinshin Toitsu Aikido ("aikido with mind and body
coordinated") because I don't want to be associated with that kind of
aikido. Aikido is a path to harmony with the universe, and it should
suffice to call it aikido (since the name incorporates this meaning),
but for the sake of clarity I added Shinshin Toitsu. Abroad it is
referred to as "Ki Aikido."

hello everyone :)
just an update on why I MIA for so long. :)
I'm going through physiotherapy now for a number of problems on my
right leg. The problems are not too serious, but need treatment right
now to make sure it doesn't get worse. doc says I need 3 months of
physio and some conditioning before I can be back for training.
So see all of you in another 2 months or so. :)
