The Current Metaphysical Conundrum...
What the hell do you want? What are you looking for? Esoteric knowledge? Spiritual content? Perhaps some supernatural truths? Something that reflects something greater than you? Is the truth really out there? Have you been able to find it? OR Have you been redirected by the great god Google to sites full of fluff and garbage and silliness because that is the great god Google’s chosen nonsense and what it wants you to read? Not to worry though they claim they have experts that do the selecting. Care to place a bet that these experts don’t have a clue about metaphysics except for the generic definition they have slapped on it? You know, the old not knowing your ass from a hole in the ground (the negative construction comparison for stupidity)? Have you been finding out that other search engines are no better? Do you enjoy being dummied down by the ultimate reset by these search engines? You’re not getting what you want, are you – all that inspires you, gives a lift and just makes you think? You may not ever again so do you think it might be worth it to bookmark the few worthy sites of information and knowledge that have supplied what you need?
What is metaphysics anyway? It is the branch of philosophy that deals with the first principles of things, including abstract concepts such as being, knowing, substance, cause, identity, time, and space. Aw, what’s the matter? Too woo-woo for you to grasp?
Philosophy is to be studied, not for the sake of any definite answers to its questions since no definite answers can, as a rule, be known to be true, but rather for the sake of the questions themselves; because these questions enlarge our conception of what is possible, enrich our intellectual imagination and diminish the dogmatic assurance which closes the mind against speculation; but above all because, through the greatness of the universe which philosophy contemplates, the mind also is rendered great, and becomes capable of that union with the universe which constitutes its highest good. – Bertrand Russell
Metaphysics is a rabbit hole about which many disagree. Beyond the general lines of inquiry referenced above, debates abound over what metaphysics even is or should be — especially in its relation to modern science. However, as a quick summary we can say that, at root, many problems in science and philosophy — including whether we have free will , whether consciousness is physical, and what causation is — are metaphysical in nature. – Jack Madden
Why do you need it? So you can keep thinking and questioning and challenging all the bullshit that is being jammed down your throat.
Maybe you don’t care. Maybe you just want to be a part of the slave nation that is being created where you don’t have to think or worry about thinking because it is being done for you. Easy peasy life is breezy – right? Congratulations – you’ve given up your power to the fiends of control. So go ahead and crawl around in the muck and mire of dumb courtesy of the new Zombie Nation of control.
Of course you could use your brain and be more specific in your web search by metaphysical/esoteric/spiritual topic rather than generally hoping a search engine will guide you to the right information. That is of course if you still have at least two brain cells to rub together for a spark of inquiry. You might even pick up a book – remember those?
Metaphysics forces the use of reason by questioning all that has been labelled truth. And how do you learn the truth? By using Discernment which is a Divine gift. Alas you’d have to engage metaphysically to learn more.
Well? As the famous ditty goes – “Whatcha gonna do when they come for you?” Because they are here just waiting to drain your brain and imprison you like some giant Jabba the Hut gelatinous mass of SEO control stripping you of your seekerdom.
R.I.P Maybe it will be better for you in the next lifetime. Oh but you’d have to read metaphysics to find that out too.
