Metaphysics 101: What is it? And why does that matter?!



. “Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics.”                                                  ”                                                                                                         ”

Ultimately, metaphysical studies answer questions about our being. Metaphysics іѕ Quantum Physics which takes into account every possible outcome of measurement of physical properties. “Quantum physics tells us that nothing that is observed is unaffected by the observer”. Regarding that statement, Author & philosopher Neal Donald Walsch says “that statement from science holds an enormous and powerful insight. It means that everyone sees a different truth, because everyone is creating what they see”.  We do this creation by way of metaphysics. Meta – outside of or Beyond and physics – physical. Metaphysics еxаmіnеѕ thе truе nаturе оf bеіng аnd rеаlіtу, whеthеr vіѕіblе оr іnvіѕіblе. It іnсludеѕ thе роwеr оf thоught tо сrеаtе (thе rеlаtіоnѕhір between mіnd аnd mаttеr), іntеllіgеnt соnѕсіоuѕnеѕѕ аnd mоrе. It іѕ a fоrm оf ѕріrіtuаlіtу, but іt іѕ nоt a rеlіgіоn. It is a form of spirituality in that it is a result of the Spirit World and nost of metaphysics is attainable because we are Spirit Beings as opposed to mere humans. We are spiritual by way of mechanics so to speak. That is our authentic structure! Metaphysics is a spiritual practice. And, thеrе аrе mаnу dіffеrеnt types of ѕріrіtuаl рrасtісеѕ wоrldwіdе thаt аrе mеtарhуѕісаl іn nаturе:

  • yoga
  • meditation
  • even prayer

Metaphysics can transcend religious belief and become the process of attaining unity with all there is. The word comes from the Greek 'meta' (beyond) and 'physika' (physics) - the science of what is beyond the physical. Aristotle coined the term, but he credits earlier philosophers with the teachings that all things derive from a single first cause.

 

Much of what is taught in metaphysics cannot be understood by the logical mind. Yet the bold efforts continue more and more everyday as those who grasp concepts set out to share them in teachings to others. One of the things being taught and encouraged is meditation where the logical side of the mind rests so that realizations can come in.

You probably have your own metaphysical questions:

 
  • What is the meaning of life?
  • Why am I here?
  • What is reality?
  • What is my purpose?
  • What is God?
  • Where do we go when we die?
  • What is consciousness?
  • Where do thoughts come from?
  • How was everything created?

A lot of metaphysical study is done through introspection, usually meditation, again! Metaphysics is above all a process of self-discovery. Ultimately, you arrive at your own truth - no matter what any spiritual teacher may tell you, all of the answers are within YOU.  A good guide will help you journey in to get those answers. Even the Buddha said, "Believe nothing, even if it comes from me." What that means is; there is no one truth! Truth is as individual as the way we each perceive the world.

Metaphysical studies teach you some important concepts:

  • You already possess all the knowledge you need. It is within you.
  • You are connected to God, or Infinite Being, or Source, Creator, Consciousness, Energy, Force... whatever name you give the power that created everything.
  • Metaphysics will push the limits of your beliefs and allow you to explore alternative beliefs - and ultimately allow you to come to a truth that is pure and unbiased.

And here’s the most golden part: WHO you are is not nearly as significant as WHAT you are and once you understand what you really are, you can use those qualities to live out a maximum life with grace and ease!
