11. “Scream to the sky: the gyroscope of Shintaido”

Shintaido of America Podcast

Imagine that you are being invited to join a series of trainings or
practices that are described like this:
People joining this training have to put their house in order before
each practice, as if they might not return. Our purpose is to discover
our physical limits and the threshold of the unknown world which begins
at the end of our psychological strength.
These were the conditions for the people who invented Shintaido, the
Rakutenkai group, which was formed under Hiroyuki Aoki’s leadership in
1965. In the last episode, we heard about Tenshingoso, the five breaths
of cosmic reality. This episode presents the other fundamental form of
Shintaido: Eiko no ken, the “sword of glory,” known now simply as Eiko
or “glory,” which Aoki describes as the “gyroscope” of Shintaido.
