Inner Structure of the Original Sungsang God’s Sungsang has the duality of Inner Sungsang and Inner Hyungsang . Inner Sungsang refers to the functional, subjective part, and Inner Hyungsang refers to the objective part. I will explain God’s Inner Sungsang and Inner Hyungsang , taking a human being as an example, inasmuch as the human mind resembles that of God. Inner Sungsang
The Inner Sungsang , the functional part within the Sungsang , refers to the faculties of intellect, emotion and will. Intellect, which is the faculty of cognition, consists of perception, understanding and reason; emotion is the faculty of feeling joy, anger, sadness and happiness; and will is the faculty of desiring, intentionality, or determining. These faculties all work actively on the Inner Hyungsang . Inner Sungsang is the subjective part within the Sungsang .
The perception faculty of the intellect refers to one’s ability to perceive external objects just as they are reflected on one’s five senses, or one’s ability to perceive intuitively; understanding refers to one’s ability to perceive logically following cause and effect; and reason refers to one’s ability to comprehend universal truths, and one’s capacity for conceptualization.
These three functions can be explained by taking as an example the process of Isaac Newton’s discovery of universal gravitation. First, Newton perceived as fact that an apple had fallen from an apple tree. Next, he reflected about the cause of the apple falling, and came to understand that the earth and the apple attracted each other. Finally, by studying, experimenting, and observing, he inferred that, in the universe, all material bodies with mass―aside from the earth and the apple―attract one another. In this process, the first stage in Newton’s cognition is perception, the second stage is understanding, and the third stage is reason, which can be called universal cognition.
