Re: How does this Square, Circle, Triangle relate to Aikido?

O'Sensei quote; http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Oracle/4449/shapes.html

"The body should be triangular, the mind circular.
The triangle represents the generation of energy and is the most stable physical posture.
The circle symbolizes serenity and perfection, the source of unlimited techniques.
The square stands for solidity, the basis of applied control."
--O Sensei
