The teachings are drawn from the talks and writings of Morihei Ueshiba, founder of the popular Japanese martial art of Aikido, a mind-body discipline he called the 'Art of Peace,' which offers a nonviolent way to victory in the face of conflict. Ueshiba believed that Aikido principles could be applied to all the challenges we face in life-in personal relationships, as we interact with society, and at work and in business. This edition is a much-expanded version of the original miniature edition that appeared in the Shambhala Pocket Classics series. It features a wealth of new material, including a biography of Ueshiba; and essay by John Stevens that presents Ueshiba's views on 'The Art of War versus the Art of Peace'; newly translated doka, didactic 'poems of the Way'; and Ueshiba's own calligraphies. Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969) is renowned as one of the greatest martial artists of all time. After years as a master of many martial arts, a soldier, and a spiritual seeker, he developed Aikido as a way to cultivate peace and harmony in the world. Contents Preface Part One: Morihei Ueshiba, Prophet of the Art of Peace Part Two: The Art of War versus the Art of Peace Part Three: The Art of Peace The Art of Peace is quite short and I was able to breeze through it in less than an hour of focused reading. That isn't to say that it is bad or anything, quite the contrary. The book contains collected sayings and wisdom from Morihei Ueshiba, the man who invented Aikido. Also contained within the book are samples of the author's calligraphy, and it looks really cool. Other than that there isn't really much to say on this one. The Art of Peace is a collection Ueshiba's teachings of overcoming aggression in the face of conflict to achieve victory, which can also be applied to all other challenges of life. I read this book cover to cover the first time around, essentially in one sitting. The second time, I took my time. I read one or even a few passages and allowed myself to sit and meditate on it, pray on it, whatever verb you wish to attach to it. Personally I believe that no matter what religious affiliation you have, you can gain some spiritual inspiration from this book if you allow yourself to go in with an open mind and heart. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
