A more appropriate definition of metaphysics may be derived from the meaning of its Greek roots, literally "Meta"; meaning beyond or after, and "Physics"; the science (or study) of matter and energy.
As science continues to delve deeply into the true nature of matter and energy, it seems more and more likely that the physical universe we perceive with our five senses may itself be metaphysical.
Quantum physics and scientific research into the Zero Point Field indicate that the "stuff" we are made of may actually be less than nothing at all. Apparently, physical objects exist on a subatomic level as mere probabilities and do not come into existence at all until the moment we perceive them.
That would make everything we perceive with our five senses "non-physical" in origin. Therefore ALL aspects of the universe, previously defined as "physical" and "metaphysical" are in fact non-material in nature.
Apparently, there is simply no area of human life that escapes the realm of metaphysical examination, making it perhaps the most difficult and complex area of study one may wish to undertake.
However, those qualities are also what makes it so worthwhile.
The study of metaphysics will lead to new technologies and understandings of human nature that may free us from the limitations causing much of the chaos, crises, and suffering of past and present societies.
In the meantime, learning about and applying metaphysical principles and testing them in your own life can bring immediate and personal benefits, including greater peace, health, and happiness for yourself and those around you.
