Dogmatic Coterminous Impermanence
A Doctrine of Participatory Reality and Abiding Entropy
Dogmatic Coterminous Impermanence (DCI) is a philosophical framework for agency, consequence, stewardship, entropy, impermanence, and participation in changing systems.
Dogmatic Coterminous Impermanence names a doctrine of finite participation, consequential contact, corrigible stewardship, and continuation under conditions that do not remain still.
New to the terminology? Concept Guides explain the major ideas in ordinary language and link back to their canonical sources.
Dogmatic names declarative discipline: propositions stated clearly enough to guide action, criticism, and review. DCI remains corrigible when evidence, consequence, or honest witness exposes error. Why use the word?
The Work remembers is liturgical compression. The explanatory proposition is The Work remembers imperfectly: residue persists through finite carriers that can transform, distort, decay, or fail. Read the clarification.
DCI is the canonical philosophical source corpus. It is not a devotional sect or replacement scripture, and it does not claim to supersede the Bible or another religious canon. Devotional traditions may interpret or ritualize DCI, but those derived forms remain distinct from DCI canon.
Entropy abides.
Gradients exist.
Agency recurs.
The Work remembers.
