Opening argument demonstrates the link between being and possibility, suggesting actualisation is inherent to Will.
This paper presents the opening argument of a longer eliminative enquiry. Beginning from a single observation — that non-being requires being — the paper derives, through successive eliminations, that possibility is without limitation, that what is generated from unlimited potential does not conflict with what is, and that actualisation is Will: “this is,” without exclusion. Each step tests a candidate. What fails dissolves. What survives is the conclusion. No premises are assumed. If any dissolution is not sound, the surviving conclusion does not stand at that point. The paper covers the first fourteen of 137 resolutions. The full enquiry is available at DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19538257, PhilArchive (BURAWI), and SSRN (abstract 6567202).
