Traditionally,
the word "Metaphysics" comes to us from Ancient Greece, where it was a
combination of two words – Meta, meaning over and beyond, and Physics,
regarding the physical. Thus, beyond the physical.
The dictionary defines
Metaphysics as a branch of Philosophy that deals with First Cause and
the Nature of Being. Today,
the word Metaphysics has become a description of many fields of
interest. Philosophy, Religion, Parapsychology, Mysticism, Meditation,
Reincarnation, Life after Death and Self-Help approaches to name a few
areas of Metaphysical reference. The common denominator of these
subjects deals with an exploration of Reality, and in the idealistic
sense, how such knowledge may benefit human life on this earth, both
individually and collectively. All but a very few practitioners in
Metaphysics today have a pivotal point of some sort of Spiritual
Philosophy in whatever system the are engaged. Metaphysics deals with the basic
questions of life, i.e., the relationship of humanity, mind, and the
Universe which leads to answers to the age-old questions of anyone who
truly pauses to reflect on life by asking the questions, "Who am I;
what am I; where am I; where have I been; and where am I going?"
The current holistic trend
toward alternative medicine is increasing the demand for metaphysical
practitioners. Natural
Sanctuary is honored to offer therapies in the vast world of
Metaphysics. |
