Koichi Tohei es considerado uno de los maestros de aikido más importantes de la historia, así como el que alcanzó la mayor longevidad de todos. Llegó a ser considerado el mejor alumno del fundador Morihei Ueshiba, y John Stevens lo considera el padre del Aikido en los Estados Unidos. Fue llamado a ser el sucesor de Morihei Ueshiba dentro del instituto Aikikai, pero debido a las diferencias irreconciliables con el hijo del fundador, el Doshu Kisshomaru Ueshiba; lo llevaron finalmente a dejar la organización en 1974 y a fundar su propio estilo, el Shin Shin Toitsu Aikido, más conocido en Occidente como Ki-Aikido.

Kōichi Tōhei: Frases en inglés

“We are blessed with a spirit that is one with the spirit of the universe. This spirit is called "reiseishin". The moon is clearly reflected in the water when the water is calm. In the same way when our mind and body are unified and calm, our "reiseishin" manifests itself completely. Once this happens all suffering and wicked desires fall away, and the universal spirit of love and protection for all things appears in us. Let us strive to realise our "reiseishin".”

17 : Reiseishin - the universal mind
Ki Sayings (2003)

“Breathe out, so that your breath travels infinitely to the ends of the universe: breathe in, so that your breath reaches your one point and continues infinitely there. The ki breathing methods are an important way of unifying mind and body. At night when all is quiet and calm, do this alone, and you will feel that you are the universe and that the universe is you. It will lead you to supreme ecstasy of being one with the universe. At this moment the life power that is rightfully yours is fully activated.”

15 : Ki breathing exercises
Ki Sayings (2003)

“The subconscious mind acts as a storehouse of knowledge and past experiences. The materials stored in the subconscious mind form the conscious mind. Henceforth let us cease putting any minus materials into the subconscious. Let us always extend plus ki and live our life with a positive attitude.”

9 : The subconscious
Ki Sayings (2003)

“It is easier to coordinate mind and body when we are sitting or standing still than when we are in motion. But true unification means to maintain the coordination of mind and body even when we are moving.”

12 : Ki development exercises
Ki Sayings (2003)

7: Living calmness
Ki Sayings (2003)

“Mind and body were originally one. Do not think that the power you have is only the power you ordinarily use and moan that you have little strength. The power you ordinarily use is like the small visible segment of an iceberg. When we unify our mind and body and become one with the universe, we can use the great power that is naturally ours.”

Ki Sayings (2003)
Contexto: The ki of the universe has never for a moment stopped moving. We call this continuous growth and development. Do you think it strange that human beings seem to be the only one trying to stop the movement of ki?

“Human beings cannot grow without feeling gratitude. Gratitude towards things is an attitude which fosters growth.”

Ki Sayings (2003)

“We begin with the number one in counting all things. It is impossible that this one can ever be reduced to zero. Because just as something cannot be made of nothing, one cannot be made from zero. Ki is like the number one. Ki is formed from infinitely small particles, smaller than an atom. The universal ki condensed becomes an individual, which further condensed becomes the one point in the lower abdomen, which in turn infinitely condensed never becomes zero, but becomes one with the universe. Thus we understand the essence of ki.”

11 : The definition of ki
Ki Sayings (2003)

“Let us have a universal spirit that loves and protects all creation and helps all things grow and develop. To unify mind and body and become one with the universe is the ultimate purpose of our study.
Four major principles to unify mind and body:
1. keep one-point
2. relax completely
3. keep weight underside and
4. extend ki.”

1 : Motto
Ki Sayings (2003)

“Until you change the sub conscience mind, you cannot say that you have learned something. If something is worth learning, you should stick with it until you have changed your subconscious mind.”

Ki Sayings (2003)

“The ki of the universe is absolute. There is no such thing as strong ki verses weak ki. Correctly speaking, ki is strong only because it is strongly extended, weak only when it is not extended strongly. There is no limit to how strong your ki can become if you train yourself to extend ki strongly.”

Ki Sayings (2003)

“Ki tests are not founded on the idea of testing for strength or weakness. The most important factor in ki testing is to accurately inform the person of the state of his or her mind. Thus, the person performing ki tests must truly understand and exhibit oneness of mind and body from the outset and then perform the tests correctly.”
