The Origin – The Code of Life

The Theory

The TFB proposes that there is a common element present in every form of life that sustains action and continuity. This element does not appear only in the adult and rational human being. It is present from the simplest forms of life to the most complex levels of human experience.

"The axis is not explained, just as thought is not explained. No one can point to where a thought begins, how it arises or where exactly it comes from—it simply happens. The axis is even deeper than that."

— Chris Montgomery

"Everything that is real is born from the invisible."

— Key phrase of TCF

The Binary Axis: Two Poles in Balance

The foundation of all human experience begins with a simple binary record.

The Structure

Key concepts from "The Origin – The Code of Life"

01

The Origin

Before there was any attempt at formal explanation, there was already something working. Patterns repeated themselves, decisions happened, movements continued even without guarantee. From experience to observation, for years, attention was focused on human behavior in real situations—not in ideal or controlled scenarios, but in life as it happens.

02

The Cognitive Axis

There is a common difficulty when trying to understand how the human being organizes itself. What comes first is not thought—what comes first is functioning. The cognitive Axis is the basic mode from which the human being begins to operate and register the world. It is formed before language, before reflection, and before the construction of the self.

03

The Binary Record

The first record is binary, anchored in only two possible poles: accepted or not accepted, safe or not safe, loved or not loved. These are not thought ideas nor conscious internal phrases—they are translations that come later from a structural record that has already been installed.

04

Sub-beliefs

Throughout life, the cognitive axis is shaped by adjustments that form sub-beliefs. They shape the functioning of the axis, expanding or restricting our responses with combinations and incomparable details. Two people can go through similar experiences yet register opposite poles.

05

Under Pressure

In safe environments, the cognitive axis operates in a more flexible way, using later records. But when pressured, the axis automatically returns to the primary record. This does not happen by choice, nor by conscious memory—it happens because the primary record is the oldest.

06

Beyond Understanding

This element does not act only where reason reaches—it also acts when reason fails, when explanation is not sufficient, and when control is not possible. Even so, it demands action, continuity, and persistence, to the limit of understanding and beyond it.

The Cognitive Axis

The cognitive Axis is the basic mode from which the human being begins to operate and register the world. It is not born from an idea, nor from a conscious conclusion. It is formed before language, before reflection, and before the construction of the self.

1

The axis is not explained, just as thought is not explained.

2

It is an invisible structure, prior to thought, feeling, and any attempt at understanding.

3

What can be observed are the records it makes, the sub-beliefs that form, and the patterns of functioning.

Author's Note

"This book was not born from an editorial plan—it was born from a process. Over the years, I have repeated countless times that each case is a case, and that nothing is by chance. This is not a catchphrase, but rather a realization that only appears when we look back with enough honesty to see the connections."
