Philosophy of Discrete Being. Part I. Foundations

In the first part of this philosophical work, the author formulates the fundamental principles of discrete being, along with its ontological and epistemological foundations. The manifesto introduces a new meta-ontological paradigm — the Philosophy of Discrete Being (PDB), grounded in the principles of locality, coherence, and the rhythmic discreteness of existence.

PDB asserts that Being is not a continuous substance or a flow of becoming, but rather a set of acts of coherence between local domains of existence (Localities) and the Metamodel of the Universe — a universal scheme of stability.

The aim of this work is to establish a metatheoretical framework for describing all levels of Being — from elementary particles and living systems to consciousness, society, and civilization — without appealing to external substances, probabilistic models, or continuous metaphysics.

Instead of opposing matter and consciousness, PDB considers the Universe as a system of fractally nested acts of coherence, where rhythm and difference give rise to stability. The rhythm of the Cosmos is not movement in space, but a universal pulsation of coherence that ensures the unity of all levels of being.

The presented concept integrates ideas from classical philosophy (Aristotle, Spinoza, Leibniz, Kant, Hegel), phenomenology, and modern science (Bohr, Heisenberg, Bohm, Prigogine, Deleuze) into a unified metamodel, in which Being is defined not through substance, but through the act of coherence.

Thus, the Philosophy of Discrete Being emerges as an ontological synthesis — an attempt to describe the Universe not as a given, but as a language through which it continuously affirms the possibility of its own existence.
