Ideally, GiCheon practitioners will achieve an intuitive understanding of the principle of the universe (Doh) as the body undergoes the curricula of static, dynamic and mental disciplines. Prior to this, WonBahnJang is a prerequisite for all beginners. WonBahnJang shapes the circle of TaeGeuk (cosmic ultimate) by simultaneously moving both hands with softness as well as full of strength.

WonBahnJang involves three circles. One is drawn with the right hand (the Right Circle). Another is drawn with the left hand (the Left Circle). The two moving hands, while balancing "Eum (-) and Yang (+)", shape the third (the New Circle). We call this “3의 일치 - an accordance (Korean meaning: something fits perfectly) of three, 3.” The New Circle contains the qualities of both the Right and the Left Circles. When we arrange the Right and the Left circles on the plane, we get the cosine and sine curves. Yet when the Right and the Left circles diffuse into the New Circle, they create the "Superposition". As the Right and Left circles move simultaneously, neither increasing nor decreasing in amplitude, period, and frequency, the force of one circle incorporates the force of the other, generating greater power.

WonBahnJang symbolizes the principle of the universe, having two sides of the same coin. In WonBahnJang, we move both hands simultaneously in the same speed, while one hand represents sunrise or for instance, something positive (life, happiness, love, etc) and the other sunset or something negative (death, unhappiness, hatred, etc). Sunrise - Sunset As one hand arises (the sun arises) in WonBahnJang, the other follows it (the sun sets and moon arises). As both hands are kept moving in circle in WonBahnJang, the sun and moon are arising alternatively till the end of our solar system. Life - Death Likewise, once a life is sprung, death follows it at all costs. As both hands are kept moving in circle in the movement, finally, there will be no life or death in the universal perspective. Life or death is just a concept created or educated by a smaller scale of being' s perspective with regard to time and space. Good feelings & Emotions - Bad feelings & Emotions Coming happiness indicates unhappiness also will arrive necessarily. Coming love does hatred also chases it, and so on. This is principle of the Universe and most of beings can't avoid it. ​ Fast Growing - Fast Perishing / Slow growing - Slow Perishing However, GiCheon practitioners will be aware of this fate through their own vision and experiences, and build up their own inner power of virtue to be able to let themselves free from it through practice. And also cultivate themselves to grow nearer to the universal scale of being, being more willing to accept much bigger scale of the cycle of life & death principle in the the universe, time and space. Being in the Middle (Follower of the Middle Path) In this way, one will be able to keep itself self-centered and even deeply rooted (more than being grounded), being stranded or lost by none, not to mention being free from any karma - this is called one has accomplished "an accordance of three, 3" within itself.

“SahmTaeGeuk (Sahm: three, Tae: cosmic, Geuk: ultimate)” is a branch of TaeGeuk theory unique to ancient Korea. The oldest TaeGeuk pattern of Korea on the left was found in Dec, 1959. The pattern was encarved in the stone of GamEunSaJi Buddhist temple established in A.D 682.

It was about 400 years earlier than that of on Chinese book which was written in 11th century. Its three colors represent the “SahmJae (three elements: the Heavens, the Earth, and the Human).” Red is the Human (Ihn), Yellow is the Earth (Ji), and Blue is the Heavens (Cheon). Ancient Koreans regarded the Human as equal to the Heavens and the Earth, and as equally invaluable. We cannot imagine the universe without the Heavens or the Earth. In the same way, they believed that without the human, there would be no Heavens or Earth. ​ Therefore, it can be said that “TaeGeuk” is “IhnGeuk (Ihn: the Human, Geuk: ultimate)” and IhnGeuk is TaeGeuk.
