Daesoon means 'circle', and is related to the philosophical concept of Mugeuk and Taegeuk.
It symbolizes the law of universal ciculation and the principles of nature itself.
The three circles in the above symbol signify that the whole universe consists of the Three Realms:Heaven, Earth, and Humanity.
The Chinese character '大(Great)'appears four times within the circle.
This implies the four basic principles of change in nature:
Birth, Growth, Harvest, and Storage, which develop into the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter and four directions of north, south, east and west.
Furthermore, it also implies benevolence, propriety, righteousness, and wisdom as found in the way of humanity.
Mugeuk: the endlessness or boundlessness from which all phenomena can be derived.
Taegeuk: the Absolute from which all myriad beings and events are developed through the forms of yin and yang.
