Metaphysics (Greek words meta = after/beyond and physics = nature) is a branch of philosophy concerned with the study of "first principles" and "being" (ontology).
The word "metaphysics" is said to originate from the mere fact that the corresponding part of Aristotel's work was positioned right after the part called "physics". But it is not unlikely that the term won a ready acceptance as denoting this part of philosophy because it conveyed the purpose of metaphysics, which is to reach beyond nature (physis) as we perceive it, and to discover the "true nature" of things, their ultimate essence and the reason for being.
Metaphysics is the branch of philosophy that explains physical phenomena using reason and logic in a way that falls outside the bounds of either religion or science.
Metaphysics talkes about the philosophy of systematic investigation of the nature of first principles and ultimate reality, being, and the nature of the universe. That is also suggested being of a nature, substance, circumstance, or composition beyond the possibilities for compounding from any physical things, particularly the physical. Being inexplicable in physical laws or principles, it is explainable only in the supernormal.
Some questions of metaphysics are:
- what kinds of entities really exist?
- do properties exist?
- are there possible, but non actual things?
- can we talk of things existing as ideas?
- or do only physical particles exist?
Metaphysics is the science that can grasp that which is most essential while remaining impartial. Thus, as we try to present the ground of ideasunder the old art and today's art, we must not restrict ourselves to esthetics, but we must resort to metaphysics. The metaphysics of art is a more fundamental domain than esthetics, or even the philosophy of art.
Plato used his theory of ideas as the ground for objectivism and stability in several domains of culture and philosophy. This affected ethics, politics, science, and reflections that later would be called metaphysical (which in Plato were elements of cosmology, ontology and dialectics). The theory of ideas was an integral part of his reflections on the origin of the world.

Metaphysics uses "left-brain thinking", reason in the service or intuition, or even intuition or imagination alone.Metaphysics can be divided into various secondary fields of inquiry, such as the relationship between mind or spirit and body - the "mind-body problem",  the problem of free will and determinism. "What is Metaphysics" requires us to define the difference between science and philosophy. In science, it's important for new explanations to make predictions that can be tested by experiments. But this is not a requirement of philosophy. Instead, we can try to attack the logical coherence of an explanation to show that it degenerates into absurdity or requires us to hold two contradictory assumptions.

Also in science, we could reject this theory because it requires us to make some big assumptions, and we can explain everything we've seen so far with a simpler theory that makes fewer assumptions. Nonetheless in philosophy one might attack this notion by showing that it ultimately results in an empty universe where nothing is made up of nothing, and there is no ultimate substance anywhere at all.This is the most intriguing and mysterious featureof the metaphysical system . Parallel universes and the hidden forms of alternative realities have been the subject of numerous works of fiction. I will now describe the actual existence of these in their septenate configuration, according to the most ancient doctrine, and verified by those human intelligences in the vanguard of evolution.There is no proof, as such, which would satisfy the scientific mind of the positivist attitude. There are analogies which can be drawn with our physical world, and of course anyone with the psychic development able to access the Akashic Records can personally verify, where everything which has happened is recorded in meticulous detail on a certain etheric level. However, demonstrative proof still eludes us, for the time being. There are myths and legends about different worlds, and there is an element of truth in all myths*which are universal, differing only in the names of personalities and elements of folklore.

To begin with, the world of physics is essentially that of the five senses, aided by the use of instruments and scientific observation, and very fine work it is, to be sure, and we are rightly proud of its achievements. Nevertheless, it is a serious error to assume that because we have no scientific proof from our infant science( it is only a few generations old), that different levels of existence are not possible. Such is the general attitude today, but new and exciting ideas have emerged in recent years of "Axions","Cosmic Strings" and "Gravitons". A graviton as a unit of gravity is calculated as having 1/18th. the energy of a photon, is without mass and travels at the speed of light. Axions are supposed to be"darkmatter" forming a large part of the substance of the cosmosSolid, liquid and gaseous states are the basisof our physical reality, but in the ascending order of vibration, the remaining four levels of our world comprise the "Etheric", "Astral", "Mental"and the "Intuitional "(or Soul).These have been described more fully under their respective headings.The highest , the" Intuitional "is better referred to in the chapters on "The Soul Concept ", and "Yoga Philosophy ".Thus accepting The Octave as a basis for the connection between the various levels of existence, each level is in a state of resonance with its corresponding level of both the higher and the lower octaves, even as the resonance between individual notes in the octaves of the piano keyboard and the "tonic solfa" scale of music . It should be apparent to the discerning mind, that it might be possible for advanced technology to devise a method of travelling between the different levels and experience those worlds by exploiting the resonance principle. It is an easy matter for the more advanced Cosmic Adepts to so travel, with their bodies of pure energy, and to construct a body appropriate to any environment by the powerof their minds. It is also possible, for suitable devices to be used in the form of space-craft and necessary for metaphysical space operations.Unfortunately, less benevolent beings who dwell in the lower astral realms could do likewise using similar methods, if it were not for the restrictions imposed quite recently by our protectors on such a venture, which was potentially capable of reaching not only our physical world but also the higher astral and mental realms using energy acquired subsequent to the Primary Initiation of The Earth .This threat still remains, and we are in considerable debt to those Cosmic Adepts to maintain the conditions so imposed"downstairs" This is related in more detail in the section on The New Age. The diagram of The Septenary Divisions and Subdivisions of The Metaphysical Cosmos is an attempt to illustrate this, in what is really a Spiral of many dimensions. Note that the upper, more subtle realms precede the lower in the Creative Cycle, a factor difficult to reconcile with The Big BangTheory. Dissolution is to be envisaged as occurring in the reverse direction as the "ladder is rolled up".

Travel between the realms of the physical ,etheric and the astral up to the higher mental is a relatively simple and everyday affair to those with the where-withal of mental equipment and bodies of pure energy, as in the case of Cosmic Masters.When it is more convenient ,and necessary for metaphysical operations use is made of sophisticated space-craft, some of which are often seen in the night skies. Unfortunately, it is also the prerogative of the lower astral and less friendly of the material universe to develop and use this principle for conquest and enslavement, and there hangs a tale of incursions and assaults on the earth ,fended off by our protectors.
