THE HISTORY OF METAPHYSICS IS THE STUDY OF THE TRUE NATURE OF WHAT WE CALL REALITY.

THE HISTORY OF METAPHYSICS IS THE STUDY OF THE TRUE NATURE OF WHAT WE CALL REALITY. IN THE PAST, THE METAPHYSICAL MOVEMENT WAS CONSIDERED TO BE ONLY "WOO WOO" CARNIVAL STUFF, TAROT CARDS, CRYSTALS, HOCUS POCUS USED TO ENTERTAIN PEOPLE BUT HAD NOTHING OF SUBSTANCE THAT COULD BE APPLIED TO REAL LIFE. BEFORE WE HAD SCIENCE STUDYING THE TRUE NATURE OF REALITY, IT WAS A PHILOSOPHICAL ADVENTURE.  MEN AND WOMEN STUDIED AND OBSERVED THE WORLD AROUND THEM.  THEY TOOK NOTE OF PERSONAL EXPERIENCES AND WOULD ATTEMPT TO DRAW CONCLUSIONS ON THEMSELVES AND THEIR PLACE IN THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE.  THEN THEY WOULD COMMUNICATE THEIR OBSERVATIONS WHICH THEY HAD EXPERIENCED WITH LIKE-MINDED OTHERS. ARISTOTLE, THE FAMOUS GREEK PHILOSOPHER, WROTE MANY BOOKS ON NATURE AND PHILOSOPHY, POSING MANY THEORIES AND PLANTING NEW IDEAS AND THOUGHTS.  HIS BOOK WAS PUBLISHED BY A SECOND GREEK PHILOSOPHER AND IN THIS BOOK, PHYSICAL NATURE AND PHILOSOPHICAL OBSERVATIONS,  WERE BUNDLED TOGETHER.  PUT TOGETHER,  THESE PREMISES BECAME WHAT IS KNOWN AS METAPHYSICS. NEXT, SCIENCE TOOK THE LEAD BELIEVING IN ONLY A SOLID PHYSICAL WORLD THAT ONE COULD TOUCH, EXPLAIN, AND SEE AS THE ONLY REAL WORLD.  ANYTHING THAT COULDN'T BE SEEN, TOUCHED, OR MEASURED WAS DISMISSED.  ANY QUESTIONS COULD BE DISMISSED WITH A CLOSE-MINDED SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION.  LATER, SCIENCE BROUGHT TOGETHER THE MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL REALMS AND THESE BECAME "PSYCHOLOGICAL".  STILL THIS COULD NOT ACCOUNT FOR MANY IMPORTANT THINGS THAT MATTERED:  RELIGION, SPIRITUALITY, AND THE MEANING OF OUR LIVES.  THESE THINGS REMAINED OUTSIDE THE REALM OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY AND EXPLANATION AND WERE, THEREFORE, CONSIDERED TO BE METAPHYSICAL AND ONCE AGAIN "NOT REAL". "META" TOOK ON A NEW MEANING:  ANYTHING OUTSIDE OR BEYOND THE REALM OF SCIENTIFIC WAS, THEREFORE, NOT TAKEN SERIOUSLY, IT WAS STILL CONSIDERED "AIRY-FAIRY".  THEN THINGS BEGAN TO CHANGE!  ALONG CAME QUANTUM SCIENCE, QUANTUM THEORY, PHYSICS, AND MECHANICS.  SCIENTISTS OBSERVED AND MEASURED SUBATOMIC SCALES OF PHYSICAL MATTER.  SCIENTISTS FOUND THE SO-CALLED "PHYSICAL WORLD" IS TRULY NOT PHYSICAL!  ALL OF A SUDDEN METAPHYSICS CAME INTO THE CENTER OF THE SCIENTIFIC CIRCUS!  NOW, EVERYTHING IN REALITY IS CONSIDERED NOT PHYSICAL BUT BEYOND PHYSICAL!  THIS NEW "DISCOVERY" HAS DEFINED OUR ENTIRE EXISTENCE AND LIFE EXPERIENCES AS METAPHYSICAL!! IT IS NOW KNOWN AND ACCEPTED, THAT METAPHYSICS IS THE STUDY OF OUR TRUE NATURE IN REALITY.  WE HAVE FOUND PHYSICAL MATTER IS NOT PHYSICAL!  IT IS MADE UP OF ENERGY AND INFORMATION WHICH IS INTERPRETED AND EXPERIENCED IN THE MIND AS SOLID PHYSICAL REALITY.  THOUGHTS ARE MORE THAN WORDS AND IDEAS FORMED IN OUR HEADS.  "THOUGHTS" MAY BE THE DNA OF THE UNIVERSE GIVING FORM TO EVERYTHING WE EXPERIENCE WITH OUR MIND.  FEELINGS IN THE HEART ARE THE CORE TO OUR CREATIVE ABILITIES GIVING SUBSTANCE TO OUR THOUGHTS AND MEANING TO OUR LIVES IN WHAT WE EXPERIENCE IN OUR MINDS.   THIS KNOWLEDGE IS STAGGERING CHANGING EVERYTHING ABOUT THE WHOLE WORLD AND WHO WE ARE AND THE TRUE NATURE OF A PHYSICAL CREATIVE PROCESS.  THIS IS REFERRED TO AS "CAUSE AND EFFECT". THE INTEREST AND APPLICATION IN METAPHYSICS GREW LEAPS AND BOUNDS AND MANY OF US BEGAN TO WAKE UP TO THE TRUE NATURE OF THE WORLD AROUND US AND THE ROLE WE PLAY WITHIN IT.  WE ARE NO LONGER ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL, NOT VICTIMS OF PREDETERMINED AND RANDOM THOUGHTS IN THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE, WE ARE NOW SEEING THE WORLD FOR WHAT IT REALLY IS:  A SYSTEM OF THOUGHTS, FEELINGS, AND EMOTIONS MANIFESTING AS EXPERIENCES IN OUR MIND.  WE ARE NOW BEGINNING TO REMEMBER WHO WE REALLY ARE:  THE SPIRIT AND THE SOUL THAT EACH OF US ARE EXPERIENCING IS ONE MIND TOTALLY UNIQUE AND NOT TO BE REPLICATED EXCEPT AS THE POINT OF VIEW OF ONES' PERCEPTION. METAPHYSICS IS THE NEW SCIENCE OF NOW!  IT'S A SYSTEM OF THOUGHT AND FEELING THAT SEES THE UNIVERSE IN A WHOLE NEW LIGHT AND IS THE OCEAN, SPACE, ENERGY, AND INTELLIGENCE THAT REALLY EXISTS SIMULTANEOUSLY WITHIN US AND WITHOUT US. WITH THIS EXPERIENCE, THE UNIVERSE IS US AS WE ARE THE UNIVERSE!  THE SKY IS NOT THE LIMIT, THERE ARE NO LIMITS EXCEPT THE ONES THAT WE CREATE WHICH ENABLE US TO LIVE IN WHAT WE CALL A PHYSICAL EXPERIENCE.   WHAT BEGAN AS PHILOSOPHY AND WAS PUSHED ASIDE AS USELESS, STRANGE, A BASELESS FANTASY HAS NOW BECOME NEW SCIENCE!  STILL IN ITS INFANCY WITH AN EXCITING LONG WAY TO GO! IF YOU'RE BEGINNING THIS NEW JOURNEY, OR YOU HAVE BEEN WITH IT FOR AWHILE, WELCOME TO A NEW LIFE TO COME!  YOU ARE SURE TO FIND SOMETHING NEW AND OF INFINITE VALUE IF YOU TAKE THE TIME TO EXPLORE IT.
