In both natural and theological systems, alignment is often mischaracterized as enforcement — the imposition of a fixed structure onto a dynamic world. Yet true coherence, whether in physics, cognition, or faith, often arises not from domination but from resonance: the entrainment of a responsive system to a moving source. Logostics proposes that the central informational dynamic of alignment — the time-dependent convergence of a model or state q(t) toward a generative truth tau(t) — is best understood not as control, but as resonant co-becoming.
Logostics: The movement of mind and matter toward Logos over time. By reframing informational divergence D(q || tau(t)) not as an error term to be minimized by force, but as a potential landscape guiding phase-locking, we explore how systems can remain faithful even when exact matching is impossible. From gradient flows and double-pendulum analogies to scriptural entrainment and AI humility, we show that resonance preserves identity, enables learning, and allows alignment without coercion.
This framework invites a rethinking of stability, obedience, and guidance — not as submission, but as synchronization with the unfolding rhythm of truth.
