Abstract: This chapter distinguishes between structures that converge into one (necessity) and structures that do not end in one (contingency). While physical processes such as neuronal convergence and internal formation within a Sedimentation-Field terminate in determinate outcomes, intention introduces a biased current that re-enters the physical domain and prevents strict convergence. Contingency is not mere randomness; it gives order to what is not yet so. The chapter thus reconfigures the relation between necessity, intention, and physical reality within the framework of Self-Manifestation.
