Time as a Three-Dimensional Continuum: Ontological Reconstruction through Conflict-Moment-Impulse

Abstract

We propose a fundamental reformulation of time as a three-dimensional continuum (Tfi, Tfi, Tfi), grounded in the ontological framework of the Conflict-Moment-Impulse (CMI). Departing from the linear ”arrow of time,” we argue that time intrinsically mirrors space in its dimensionality and that linear temporality is an epistemic artifact of measurement through spatial motion. In CMI, reality is not a static substrate but a continuous genesis, where being (Afi) and non-being (–Afifi) are held in a dynamic tension within the fiU field. This framework provides a unified ontological basis for redefining gravity, the cosmological constant, photon dynamics, quantum indeterminacy, and consciousness. We conclude that Laplacean determinism is ontologically impossible: each moment is a genuine act of birth, not the unfolding of a pre-written script.
