Return to the Source

Book Cover & Preview Text
"We see things according to what we understand (if a building is sound it needs to be built on a good foundation). By looking at things from a different perspective this can change our whole perception. The deeper we look the more we see and the more our perception changes (develops).
To give you an idea of this: When I am sitting here writing these words I appear to be quite still, and apart from reading, I am not moving at all, yet the ground I am sat on is part of the earth which is spinning around and moving around the sun. The sun is part of the galaxy with all its planets which are also moving.
So although I am sitting still, there is a lot of movement going on around and beneath me and I am part of this movement; so even the simple phrase ‘being still’ can be looked at from another perspective."

About the Book
Because he sees the Source and its workings in everything, Sensei encourages us to do the same. By the end of the book you will find yourself looking at say, the flame of a matchstick with new appreciation and meaning.
Because no one really knows what the Source looks like, Sensei’s artwork and photographs are included to underline and enhance certain key concepts. This means that the book is very direct and can reach you on a deeper level surprisingly quickly. The photographs are not additions to make the book look better, rather they are an integral part of the fabric of the text, weaving their own story with the words.
About the Author
Sensei Wasyl Kolesnikov, 6th dan, specializes in mind and body development and has been a national Aikido teacher for over 30 years, and an international Aikido teacher for over 20 years. More recently he has begun teaching Infinite Tai Chi. In this book he brings together his unique experience, both within the field of Aikido and mind and body work. His writings explore many deep aspects such as the meaning and nature of creation, and the subtle energy which pervades everything; simply called the Source.
He has developed a simple ‘no nonsense’ approach to his teaching which is refreshingly direct. He does not use esoteric language which is hard to grasp, rather he prefers to find inspiration and deeper meaning from ordinary and seemingly mundane things.
