BEBrittany Shanté Evans

Key Points

  • The aim is to present Nodal Existence Theory as a philosophical approach to human purpose defined through consciousness.
  • Introduced Nodal Existence Theory and its foundational pillars.
  • Mapped the cosmological architecture related to the central claim.
  • Distinguished the framework from existentialism, theological thought, and secular humanism.
  • Outlined an interdisciplinary research agenda.
  • Proposed that human purpose is structurally determined rather than divinely assigned or subjectively constructed.
  • Identified four foundational pillars supporting Nodal Existence Theory.
  • Established the theoretical framework as a distinct approach from existing philosophical traditions.

Abstract

This white paper introduces Nodal Existence Theory as a philosophical framework proposing that human purpose is neither divinely assigned nor subjectively constructed, but structurally determined by the functional role consciousness plays within a self-processing universe. Written as an accessible companion to the formal paper, it maps the cosmological architecture underlying the central claim, articulates four foundational pillars, distinguishes the framework from prior traditions in existentialism, theological thought, and secular humanism, and opens a research agenda for the interdisciplinary study of structural purpose.
