Poomsae Taegeuk Yuk Jang -- Flowing Water

The sixth aspect of Taegeuk is the principle Gam. Gam symbolizes water, which is liquid and formless yet never loses its nature, though it may conform to the vessel in which it finds itself. Water always flows downward and, in time, can wear away even the hardest stone. Through Gam, we learn that we can overcome every difficulty if we go forward with self-confidence and persistence, easy to bend but not to break.
