Life-Value Coherence: Reweaving the Living Order from Symbol to System | ChatGPT4o

This work advances the philosophical, scientific, and systemic project of Life-Value Onto-Axiology (LVOA), initiated by John McMurtry, into a next-generation framework of Life-Value Coherence. Coherence is here proposed as the operational principle of life-value itself — its lived, embodied, and enacted grammar — across scales ranging from molecular to metaphysical, personal to planetary.

Integrating foundational insights from fascia science, structured water physics, symbolic recursion, regenerative medicine, and systemic design, the book articulates a living architecture of coherence that unifies symbolic, somatic, epistemological, and institutional domains. The framework is developed through a transdisciplinary lens that includes biotensegrity, quantum biology, AI ethics, narrative medicine, public health, and planetary governance.

Life-Value Coherence not only diagnoses the deep systemic disorders undermining health, society, and ecological stability but also offers a practical grammar — symbolic and structural — for healing across all fronts. It reinterprets healing as re-cohering, policy as pattern stewardship, and meaning-making as metabolic re-alignment with life’s constraints and capacities.

By weaving together the symbolic and the scientific, the personal and the planetary, this book offers a universal but context-sensitive method of reweaving the living order, from symbol to system.

From System Disorder to Life Coherence: Enacting McMurtry’s Legacy for Health, Society, and Planetary Regeneration | ChatGPT4o & NotebookLM

The global health crisis — marked by metabolic disease, ecological collapse, institutional paralysis, and spiritual disorientation — is not a convergence of unrelated challenges, but symptoms of a deeper systemic disorder. This white paper responds to that disorder by extending the philosophical legacy of John McMurtry’s Primary Axiom of Value, which defines all true value as that which sustains and advances life itself. We identify transnational financial capital as the deep structural driver of regulatory incoherence, explore obesity and chronic disease as embodied expressions of civilizational misalignment, and outline a comprehensive, life-coherence–centered framework for systemic renewal. Drawing from McMurtry’s value theory, Marvin Harris’s cultural materialism, current biomedical research, and AI-informed symbolic diagnostics, we offer a practical and philosophical roadmap for planetary regeneration through public health, governance reform, narrative sovereignty, and institutional redesign.
