Ontological Instability as Fundamental Proposition: A New Metaphysical Framework for Understanding Reality

This thesis proposes a radical reconceptualization of ontology through the establishment of instability, uncertainty, and fluctuation as fundamental characteristics of being itself. Challenging the millennia-old Western philosophical tradition that has privileged ontological stability since Parmenides, this work develops a novel theoretical framework called "Fluctuational Ontology" grounded in what I term the "Instability Principle." Drawing from process philosophy, quantum mechanics, Buddhist impermanence doctrine, Heraclitean flux, and Deleuzian rhizomatics, while proposing unprecedented theoretical innovations, this thesis argues that ontological stability is not merely absent or difficult to achieve, but is fundamentally impossible due to the self-undermining nature of any attempt to establish fixed being. The work introduces five novel concepts: Fluctuational Ontology, the Instability Principle, Processual Emergence, Ontological Uncertainty Relations, and Rhizomatic Being. Through rigorous philosophical analysis supported by visual diagrams and comparative charts, this thesis demonstrates that reality consists primarily of processes of becoming rather than stable entities, with profound implications for ethics, politics, science, and art. The central contribution is the demonstration that ontological instability is not a problem to be solved but the fundamental condition that makes existence, knowledge, and value possible.
