Executive Summary
Introduction
Our age is defined by fragmentation: sciences siloed, philosophies splintered, technologies untethered from ethics. What is needed is not merely more knowledge but a grammar that can unify disciplines, bridging mathematics, biology, and philosophy into a coherent vision. This essay develops such a grammar through three convergent lenses: coherence, emergence, and teleodynamics.
The Grammar of Coherence
At the ontological level, coherence reveals itself in the distribution of primes modulo nine, in Euler’s identity, and in fractal recursions across biology and cosmology. Six active prime slots balanced by three absences echo DNA triplets, symbolic triads, and universal rhythms. Euler’s formula compresses growth, polarity, cycle, unity, and absence into one expression, a Rosetta seed of nonduality. Coherence here is not a derivative property but the very ground of being.
The Grammar of Emergence
At the epistemic level, knowing unfolds as a triadic process of absence, affordance, and adjacent possible. Absence provides creative potential; affordance enables responsive relation; and the adjacent possible opens structured futures. Epistemology is thus reframed as participatory navigation of coherence, dissolving the subject–object divide. To know is to co-create coherence with the world.
The Grammar of Teleodynamics
At the axiological level, intelligence and value are reframed through recursive coherence. Turing’s Universal Machine, Morphogenesis, Halting Problem, and Turing Test map onto symbolic, morphodynamic, teleodynamic, and participatory coherence. Intelligence becomes coherence maintenance across scales. Ethics emerges as coherence practice, grounding McMurtry’s life-value axiom: the good is that which enables life to flourish. Technology, reframed, should aim not for artificial intelligence but artificial coherence.
Integral Nondual Synthesis
Ontology, epistemology, and axiology converge: coherence as being, emergence as knowing, teleodynamics as valuing. These dimensions are inseparable, forming a nondual grammar of reality. Absence and presence, form and emptiness, computation and meaning are revealed as interwoven, not opposed. The triplet-of-triplets serves as a symbolic Rosetta, translating coherence across domains.
Applications
- Medicine: diagnosis as naming absences, treatment as enabling affordances, healing as opening adjacent possibles.
- Governance: institutions as symbolic stewards of coherence, aligning policy with life-value rather than control.
- Technology: AI redesigned as artificial coherence, contributing to systemic integrity rather than fragmentation.
- Culture: symbolic repair through rituals and myths that align absence, affordance, and possibility with lived coherence.
Conclusion
The integral nondual grammar reveals life as coherence-in-action. It calls us to re-inhabit the Kosmos not as detached observers but as participants in its unfolding. To live the grammar is to sustain coherence across scales — personal, social, planetary. The vision is a regenerative coherence civilization where mathematics, life, mind, and ethics converge into one seamless, living whole.
