Life-core Continuity After Biological Death: an Informational and Theoretical Framework
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This work presents a theoretical and integrative framework addressing the question of continuity after biological death through a systems-based physiological perspective. The manuscript introduces the concept of the Life-Core as a centralized informational and regulatory construct coordinating neural, autonomic, endocrine, organ-level, and cellular processes. Across fourteen chapters, major physiological systems—including the brain, heart, lungs, liver, digestive system, kidneys, endocrine system, reproductive system, musculoskeletal system, and cellular regulation—are examined using a consistent integrative logic. Rather than treating organs as independent units, physiological function is interpreted as prioritized and synchronized execution shaped by contextual, emotional, and survival-relevant evaluation. Whole-body synchronization is presented as a defining feature of living systems, while health and dysfunction are discussed in terms of regulatory coherence and desynchronization. Biological death is examined as the collapse of coordinated physiological execution. Continuity beyond biological death is discussed strictly as an informational and theoretical hypothesis, without claims of empirical proof or metaphysical assertion. This manuscript is intended as a conceptual contribution to theoretical physiology, systems biology, neuroscience, and psychology, and is open to empirical testing, refinement, or falsification.
