New blog post! - "O-Sensei often told me "it's not the body (魄), it's the mind (魂)". But I was stupid and I didn't listen"

Enjoy!

Good Morning, Chris,

You have not given a link to the interview here, but I went to it through your website.

I am curious about the identity of the interviewer, or interviewers. I see that the book was published relatively recently, in 2009, but the interviews were conducted over a period beginning in December 2004. Do you know, or have you met, any of the interviewers?

Best wishes,

PAG

Oops - well, here's the link (http://www.aikidosangenkai.org/blog/interview-aikido-shihan-hiroshi-kato-part-1/).

I'm not sure about the interviewers, there's no attribution in 開祖の横顔. The interviews all originally appeared in Gekkan Hiden, and I notice that they sometimes note an interviewer, and they sometimes don't (just "Editorial Staff").

Best,

Chris
