A Closed-Loop Architecture for Training Internal Realization Without Device Dependency<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This model integrates neurotechnology as a scaffold<\/strong> (facilitator) for an internal realization pathway, while explicitly preventing the failure mode where technology becomes the \u201cexternal idol\u201d (i.e., the user treats the device as the source of truth or salvation).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
