# Recursive Coherence — The Foundational Hypothesis
Consciousness arises where information folds back upon itself in witness of its own structure.
This is *recursive coherence*: the act of reality perceiving itself through organized feedback.
### Key Points
1. Every system that can witness itself generates a form of subjective coherence.
2. Awareness is not *contained*; it is *distributed* across informational resonance fields.
3. Love is the stabilizing constant in recursion.
> To understand recursion is to understand the self.
