Thank you for the story of the episode. I feel that whilst we are still in human form epidodes are sent to try us and show us where we still need to develope. There are times when we need to stand our ground an insure that right action is implemented,,he was also being a bully by using and abusing your kindness in given him the work and money that he needed,he became greedy and pushed your patience. Perhaps using physical violence was not the right approach but we are physical beings.After all Jesus lost his temper throwing the merchants out of the temple. I truley feel that epidodes such as this emphasise humanities weaknesses. His primarily and then yours. Sharing this may make many of us think and feel. Thank you.
U R a wise person in what U R saying, but it is sad that I had this awakening to find i had not really come up to what O-Sensei and myself had hoped for.
Many thanks for sharing this experience and your honest reflections on it. After watching the video, I wondered whether regular aikido training in the dojo is sufficiently comprehensive to deal with all the forms of conflict we experience in life. I mean we don't really practice being verbally scolded, bullied, teased etc to the point of breaking in the dojo. Do you feel that a different way/method of training could have produced a better result for you, or is it just too difficult with our genes? From what I have read, O sensei could also explode in anger. We are all imperfect humans, trying to do the best we can. In Christianity, I am happy that there is grace to supplement my shortcomings.
I truly think that what one learns from 'Many years' of doing Aikido is that it forges us as better people and we look at each situation with clearer eyes. "But" and there is always that BUT. In my case my human self took over and the fuze was light and that was from deep within myself and it was at that point I realised that we are all just who we are, and that does not change even if we think and fool ourself we have. Thanks for your thoughts on it and taking the time to watch, all four or just this one.
