What is Metaphysics?

What is Metaphysics?  According to the dictionary, Metaphysics is the branch of Philosophy concerned with the study of the nature of being and beings, of existence, time and space, of causality.  I like the literal translation:  "beyond the physical".  Metaphysics is a contemplation of our own realities, "visible or invisible."  Understand that Metaphysics is not a Science . . .

Metaphysics is a broad-ranging Philosophy.  If you have ever been to the Metaphysical section of any book store you can see just exactly how broad a range of "thoughts and theories" encompass the field.  You'll have countless topics, books on God, religions, ESP , Astrology, Reincarnation, Mysticism, Meditation, Dreams and even the power of positive thinking.  If humans can question it, we can study it, all in the name of Metaphysics.

All of my contemplation of anything "metaphysical" can be boiled down to what I know to be true philosophically and scientifically:  Quantum Physics is Mystical Reality.

    About Janet:

    Janet DeLong, PhD, is a philosophical writer.  She'd tell you that is by default, we know it's by design.  While her perceptions are not always comfortable, they are always
    intriguing.

    Why am I answering your questions?
    I'm answering, in part, because it amuses me that my response to that question could be just as cryptic:  "Maybe I'm not."  That lets me laugh.  Truth is, words really do hold power.  How language is used to communicate, all the words, phrases, sentences, intrigue me.

    It has always been a challenge to be able to communicate my truth on every single level I can think it.  I've actually accomplished that twice, in two sentences.  The best sentence I've ever written:  "pi will id."  And the truth:  "When you finally understand yourself a particle, you wave."
