Re: The Greater and Lesser Problem

Piyush,

Thank you again for your time in reading and contemplating these concepts.

We can do aikido, and cause aiki to happen. Or we can do things that interfere with allowing aiki to occur, and experience an increase of conflict and disruption.

Part of the discipline is knowing how to create aikido. The other part is knowing that aikido exists without us and will happen all on its own. But even then, our discipline is in learning how to arrange ourselves so that we do not interfere with this inevitability.

Thanks,

Ross
