This paper proposes a theoretical framework for consciousness as an emergent manifestation of universal organizational principles in cosmic evolution. Extending relational ontology through thermodynamic and information-theoretic foundations, it argues that consciousness arises when systems achieve sufficient relational complexity to sustain self-referential organization. Mathematical formalization links neural structures to cosmic processes. The approach reinterprets the hard problem and explanatory gap from evolutionary-naturalistic perspectives, opening interdisciplinary research pathways across philosophy, cosmology, and complexity science.
