Cultivate a spirit of forgiveness and let go of past grievances from "summary" of The Art of Peace by Morihei Ueshiba
The path of peace requires us to cultivate a spirit of forgiveness and release ourselves from the burden of past grievances. Holding onto grudges and resentment only serves to weigh us down and prevent us from moving forward on our journey towards harmony and enlightenment. When we cling to anger and resentment, we allow the negative energy of these emotions to poison our hearts and minds, leading us further away from the path of peace and inner tranquility. Forgiveness is not a sign of weakness, but rather a demonstration of our strength and resilience. It takes great courage to let go of the past and embrace forgiveness, but in doing so, we free ourselves from the shackles of anger and resentment that bind us. By releasing the grip of past grievances, we create space in our hearts and minds for love, compassion, and understanding to flourish. Forgiveness does not mean that we condone or forget the harm that has been done to us. It simply means that we choose to release ourselves from the cycle of anger and retaliation that only serves to perpetuate the cycle of violence and suffering. By practicing forgiveness, we break free from the chains of hatred and open ourselves up to the transformative power of peace. Letting go of past grievances is a process that requires patience, self-reflection, and a willingness to let go of our ego and sense of pride. When we release ourselves from the burden of past hurt and resentment, we create space for healing and reconciliation to take place. By cultivating a spirit of forgiveness, we pave the way for a brighter future filled with love, harmony, and mutual understanding. In the practice of Aikido, we learn to embrace the principle of non-resistance and to respond to conflict with grace and compassion. By embodying the spirit of forgiveness in our daily lives, we not only cultivate peace within ourselves but also contribute to the creation of a more peaceful and harmonious world. Let us strive to release ourselves from the chains of past grievances and embrace the transformative power of forgiveness on our journey towards inner peace and enlightenment.
