“In your training, do not be in a hurry, for it takes a minimum of ten years to master the basics and advance to the first rung. Never think of yourself as an all-knowing, perfected master; you must continue to train daily with your friends and students and progress together in the Art of Peace.”
~ Morihei Ueshiba, Founder of the Martial Art of Aikido from The Art of Peace
Ueshiba also teaches us that, “Those who are enlightened never stop forging themselves.”
How about you?
Do you tend to think you should master something in a weekend?
Do you ever think you’ve “arrived”?
…Don’t know about you, but I’m on the “10-year-to-the-first-rung” plan. Almost there. :)
You?

The spiritual journey does not consist in arriving at a new destination where a person gains what he did not have, or becomes what he is not. It consists in the dissipation of one’s own ignorance concerning one’s self and life, and the gradual growth of that understanding which begins the spiritual awakening. The finding of God is a coming to one’s self.
~ Aldous Huxley
