Do you think it is possible to get Satori through aikido, and does anyone know of anyone to whom this has happened. You would think it more likely than through meditation since Zen masters spent half their time slapping each other.
Also, do you think satori is cultural (or psychological) and that it is more difficult for people with a traditional Western backround to attain, or is it experienced but interpreted differently.
