385: Cider's Ki - Remix

Searching for Cider's Universal Life Force a.k.a: Ki

Of course Cider has Ki , as it is related to the Japanese martial art Aikido. It all began when four words "Bravey, Wisdom, Love and Friendship" were spoken at New York Apple Camp in the summer of 2023. Apple Historian, author and well known apple detective John Bunker was the key note speaker at camp who also happened to be quoting from a book titled "The Art of Peace'.

The book was written by Morihei Ueshiba, the Founder of Aikido, and was translated into English by John Stevens who was a student of the Founder. And it was within that book that he found those four inspiring words "Bravey, Wisdom, Love and Friendship".

The Founder , or Ōsensei as he was lovingly spoken often of Ki and its power. In short it is a universal life force that is present in all of us and all living things, including apple trees, orchards and cider.
