Satori as Serial Transparency: Same-Trace Passage across kṣaṇa under Bounded Non-Closure

Key Points

The central aim is to formalize satori within a computational framework, focusing on specific conditions of transparency and continuity.
Proposed a minimal runtime formalization of satori under the concept of bounded non-closure.
Redefined kṣaṇa as a registered observer-side cut relating to biological cycles like breath and heartbeat.
Isolated mechanics of same-trace continuation, excluding broader dynamics.
Satori is defined as the condition of serial transparency where deviation passes through phase-preserving rectification.
Emphasized that this model avoids complications introduced by traditional metaphysical views.
Reinforced the focus on minimal definitions excludes broad dynamics like dukkha.

Abstract

This paper proposes a minimal runtime formalization of satori within the framework of "bounded non-closure" and -indexing. Unlike traditional metaphysical interpretations, satori is defined here as a specific computational condition: "serial transparency. " In this model, kṣaṇa is redefined as a registered observer-side cut on exposed biological cycler phases (such as breath or heartbeat). Satori is formulated as the condition where exposed deviation () passes through phase-preserving rectification on the same trace without additional projection or trace transfer. The study isolates the mechanics of same-trace continuation as a minimal definition, intentionally excluding broader dynamics such as dukkha or trigger thresholds.
