The Metaphysical
Excessively subtle or abstract. Not
empirically verifiable, immaterial, incorporeal, supersensible; supernatural. That transcends matter or the physical.
Fanciful, imaginary. Oxford Dictionary
All things metaphysical are fashionable at present as we
enter the ‘New Dark Age’ that is dominated by ancient, sacred, spiritual and other-worldly concepts. Ancient
healings and esoteric medicines, divinations and prophecies, energies and auras, folk tales and legends, gurus and
shamans, fairies and goddesses, sacred sites and cosmic planes, chakras and levels of consciousness, telepathy and
spiritualism, visions and entities, ESP and UFO’s, somas and souls, mysticism and meditation, rituals and rites,
reincarnations and past lives, karmas and dharmas, devils and demons … they all testify to the vast extent of
metaphysical beliefs. When one really investigates one finds that everyone believes in the metaphysical – without the
hope of a ‘something else’, ‘someone else’ or ‘somewhere else’ the suffering of humanity would be
unbearable.
Actual freedom offers a freedom from this ‘self’-imposed, imaginary
meta-physical world of good and evil, right and wrong as the very instinctual biological roots of suffering and malice
are totally eliminated with the extinction of one’s own psyche.
