Pure Love: A Working Theory (PLWT): A Framework for Universal Coherence

I posit that love is Negentropic Energy — not a metaphor, but a measurable configuration of universalenergy that reduces disorder within a system. This energy, which I term Reasonance, manifests whenconsciousness achieves egoless seeing (unconditional self-acceptance) and enters...

Appendix A: Cross-Cultural Convergence on Love, Coherence, and Relational Unity Anthropological Evidence for a Universal Human Pattern

This is the validation paper of the Unified Coherence Framework. Every other paper in this series argues from science: neuroscience,attachment theory, endocrinology, trauma research, physics-adjacentsystems modeling. This paper asks a different question. If theframework is descri...

Rubber Band Theory: Toward a Unified Energetic Model of Love, Ego, and Human Coherence

The Rubber Band Theory (RBT) proposes a unified framework for understanding human relationalbehavior by integrating findings from neuroscience, psychology, attachment theory, endocrinology,anthropology, and theology. Building upon two prior works — Pure Love: A Working Theory (PL...

Introduction to the Unified Coherence Framework: A Multi-Paper Theoretical Architecture on Love, Trauma, and Human Relational Systems

The Unified Coherence Framework (UCF) is a six-paper theoretical architecture proposing that love functions as a measurable organizing force — not a sentiment, not a metaphor, not a cultural construction — but a coherence-producing energetic configuration embedded in human biolog...

Love Taxonomy: A Circuit-Based Framework for Classifying Love States and Bond Structures

Love is among the most universally referenced human phenomena, yet it remains inconsistently definedacross disciplines and frequently misclassified as a discrete emotion. This paper proposes that suchconfusion arises from a category error: love does not function as an emotion, bu...

Love as Emotional Container and Integrative Flow (LECIF) A Unified Model of Affective Coherence

This paper proposes that love is not a discrete emotion, but a dual-function relational architecturecomposed of:An emotional container — the regulatory environment that safely holds the full spectrum of humanaffect.An integrative flow-state — the dynamic movement of emotion, atte...

Broken Bonds: Quantifying Betrayal-Related Neuro-Injury in Law and Medicine

If relational health is defined by coherence — order and optimal function — then betrayal representsthe violent, sudden imposition of positive entropy (disorder) upon that system.BNRI describes the measurable consequences of that collapse: disruption of the stress axis, damage to...
