The dual characteristics of Yang and Yin are completely harmonized.

The dual characteristics of Yang and Yin are completely harmonized, as are the dual characteristics of Sungsang and Hyungsang . This is what the Divine Principle means in saying that “God, as the Subject partner, has dual characteristics of Yang and Yin in perfect harmony [Chung-hwa]” ( DP , 18-19). The Korean term Chung-hwa , as used for Yang and Yin, as well as for Sungsang and Hyungsang , means harmony and unity. The dual characteristics were united into oneness before creation was designed. From this oneness, Yang and Yin attributes were separated at the time of creation. Looking at Yang and Yin from this perspective, I Ching , or the Book of Changes , is correct in saying that “The Great Ultimate, or T’aichi, generates the two primary elements of yin and yang.”
