This research addresses Loschmidt’s paradox—the conflict between microscopic reversibility and macroscopic irreversibility—through dialectical materialism, suggesting that the contradiction stems from theoretical modeling limitations rather than nature itself. We demonstrate how physical systems inherently evolve toward maximum relative stability within material constraints.Analyzing quantum phenomena reveals probabilistic interpretations as epistemological rather than ontological limits. Path dependence emerges as more fundamental than temporality, with time serving as the structural framework for recording material transformations. This perspective reframes the least action and ground state principles as expressions of matter’s inherent teleological nature.This synthesis reconciles determinism and finality by demonstrating how system histories shape stability-oriented development, offering testable predictions. We propose incorporating historicity and teleology as fundamental features to advance physical theory and bridge quantum descriptions with other domains.
