Philosophies
He got famous with his non-dualistic approach He employed this approach toward interpreting the
relationship between iand ki, or 'principle' and'material force.
Yulgok was neither a dualist nor a monist, he rejectedthe division between 'principle' and 'material force' onan ontological level
He made a clear distinction between these two
concepts on a phenomenological level. Confucianism + Daoism + Buddhism =Neo-
Confucianism
Yulgok is viewed as the opposite of T'oegye
