【In the Present, Practice Reflects the Present】Kenshu Masato Sasaki, Calligraphy, Yamakage Shinto Kamifukuoka Shrine, Aikido Master, Calligraphy This was written at a certain event. It is a genuine calligraphy work by the one-eyed Masando Sasaki, former chief priest of Yamakage Shinto Kamifukuoka Shrine and former Aikido master. It is in the state before being finished as a hanging scroll. Please arrange for backing, mounting, and framing separately. If you are interested, please consider it. As it is a matter of connection, I hope it reaches someone who will appreciate it. I also have three other original calligraphy works. "Who is Masato Sasaki?" He trained under the founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba, and studied under Tenpu Nakamura. He performed the opening sword ceremony at Tokyo Disneyland. This is a handwritten calligraphy work by Mr. Masato Sasaki. Despite losing an eye in an accident in his childhood, he lived with his inherent cheerfulness, and his unique humorous sermons were famous. As a martial artist, the brushwork unique to the teacher who valued "Ki" has a calmness within its strength, and the lines are alive as if the techniques are flowing. I think it is not just a calligraphy, but a "scroll where the presence of Ki dwells." (He passed away in September 2023 at the age of 93)
