Imagine someone to cut you in shomen or yokomen. The automatic reaction is to block.
Ahora, a firm rule in Aikido is that no blocking allowed.
Ok ….. So this first and foremost shows you that the emphasis in aikido is harmoniously aligned movement. Movement as such is the modus operandi of these situations.
Ahora …. if you are an advocate of not shin budo then the goal is get ahead of these things first. Okay. Todo esto está muy bien.
However, Aikido is in the viewer something that you think exactly like blocking. The blow comes and your 'bloqueas’ and take. Then, What it is this block is not blocking?
Actually it comes from the sword.
It is the meeting.
It's a fascinating look, but the truth of the matter is that if you block and thus try to stop the attack, get hurt and possibly damaged it could be the inevitable result of either. Por supuesto, It is because that is resistance.
The funny thing is that even if you meet, then stops.
It has been a source of mild shock to me over the years as people point out how Ueshiba used a kanji meaning “stop the attack 'and thus introduce the idea of trying to stop or how to stop.
you uniting. At that time everything has changed, all one. Of course it takes practice, but it is a vital principle to understand.
If you receive the attack without leaving then it seems to have blocked and stopped the attack. Subtle differences make a difference and that difference is internal.
It is not an intention, It is a decision and the decision is to meet ….. therefore meets Ki.
Ellos vienen …… yo los encuentro.
