The Art of Peace: Mass

New York Times bestseller: Teachings on fearlessness, compassion, and love of nature by the founder of the Japanese martial art of Aikido

The real way of the warrior is based on compassion, wisdom, fearlessness, and love of nature. So taught the great Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969), founder of the Japanese martial art of Aikido. Aikido is a mind-body discipline Ueshiba called the "Art of Peace." It offers a nonviolent way to victory in the face of conflict, and Ueshiba believed that Aikido principles could be applied to all the challenges we face in life-in personal and business relationships, as well as in our interactions with society.

The Art of Peace features these succinct and pithy teachings, all drawn from Ueshiba's talks and writings. The collection is compiled by a renowned modern Aikidoist and Ueshiba disciple, John Stevens.
