X Abstract

Creation and existence of order are of philosophical significance and practical utility. This paper spells clear, succinct, yet comprehensive directives for order creation, existence and total destruction, in the form of nine exclusive directives established from the broken symmetry in the inter-convertibility of order and disorder stated by the Entropy Principle and the Law of Maximum Entropy Production. They form the guiding principles for order creation, stable existence and total destruction, at all scales. A representative mathematical model of order within disorder portrays these directives and spells the sustainability criterion for order existence. Since order is possibly stable only in chaotic systems, some of these directives have a probabilistic tone.
