Religions and Rituals: A Coherence Field Paradigm Interpretation of Phase Stability and Realignment in Social Structures

This paper reinterprets religious systems, rituals, and revival movements through the lens of the Coherence Field Paradigm (CFP). It introduces religion not as a belief system, but as a structured phase stabilization mechanism that maintains coherence across identity, behavior, and community. Using core principles of CFP—including nested coherence veils, phase drift, and gradient tension—the paper analyzes how rituals entrain group fields, how trauma collapses sacred veils, and how revival functions as systemic rebinding. This work extends CFP beyond physics and biology into the social domain, providing a universal relational model for understanding the sacred, the symbolic, and the resilient architecture of faith across cultures and eras.
