There is no enemy for Ueshiba of Aikido. You are mis­taken if you think that budo means to have opponents and enemies and to be strong and fell them. There are neither opponents nor enemies for true budo. True budo is to be one with the Universe ; that is, to be united with the Centre of the Universe .
Morihei Ueshiba
