New Year’s greeting by Doshu Moriteru Ueshiba at Aikikai Hombu Dojo Kagami Biraki
“I am pleased that a great number of people were able to participate in the Kagamibiraki this year. Last year, I had many opportunities to visit domestic and overseas dojos. At those times, it was encouraging to see that Aikido has taken root and is well understood by many people.This is because Kisshomaru Doshu laid the foundation for the dissemination and promotion of the Aikido Kaiso founded. It is important that we keep in mind the ideals and spirit of Aikido as founded by Kaiso in our daily practice. It is our responsibility to transmit this true Aikido to posterity. It is my wish that this year we preserve the above state of mind.”
