Difference Between Physics and Metaphysics

物理与形而上学

When a Yogi floats on air or a dancer performs extraordinary feats that cannot be explained using the principles of physics, they are at best left unanswered and sometimes the persons are even labeled as fraud or cheats. This is because the knowledge of mankind is limited by what they know about the universe and the relationships between things as described by physics. What cannot be explained using even the latest findings in physics is incomprehensible to most of us. But where physics ends, metaphysics takes center stage. Physics is all about nature, natural phenomenon, and our understanding of all relationships while metaphysics also tries to answer why part of all things. Why do we or universe exists or where have we come from and what is the cause of our existence are some of the questions that are tackled by metaphysics. There are similarities but stark differences between physics and metaphysics. These differences will be highlighted in this article.

物理学有其局限性，它只能根据牛顿原则和法律来解释宇宙中发生的事情和现象。当音乐家超越这些原理时，他会制作音乐，听起来很魔力，而不可能符合普通物理学原理。让我向读者提出这个问题。如果一棵大树落在森林中，声音很大，但是没有人在那里听这种声音。有声音吗？只有在我们能够听到的情况下，我们才会称呼物理现象的声音。但是，声音的现象是发生的，而我们没有知道它的发生。这仅仅是为了解释形而上学只是意味着在我们不知情的情况下发生的物理原理。物理学有其局限性，而形而上学没有局限性。目前我们似乎不可能理解形而上学，这只是我们对宇宙的有限知识。 However with advancements in physics and quantum physics coming into existence, many of the unresolved concepts of metaphysics are being explained. There are many principles of metaphysics that are now laws of modern physics. It would not be surprising that metaphysics of today may become physics tomorrow.

物理学通过我们对宇宙的有限理解来研究自然和自然现象，例如物质，能量，运动时间和空间。它使用测量和定量和定性分析来发现自然的能量和力量来描述各种事件和事件。它的限制是可以解释可以观察并进行测试的事物。在任何给定的时间点我们是否知道一切。因此，很难分辨我们知道的是最终知识，还是除了我们所知之外还有什么。因此，我们所有的科学理论，尤其是物理学理论都受到新的发展，并继续进行修改。

形而上学另一方面试图找到如果re is any reality beyond our universe and whether there is any creator. It is actually a continuum from physics that relates us to may unresolved concepts of our universe. It probes the whole of reality, not just the physical part that is observable and quantifiable. So it talks not just about simple reality but also unconditioned reality, infinite reality, intelligible reality and a spiritual reality.

物理is limited to the data of our universe and to what can be empirically observed. It can bring us to the limit of the universe beyond which it finds itself unable to explain anything, and this is where it passes on the baton to metaphysics. Metaphysics takes recourse to the idea of a creator because if there was nothing before the beginning of the universe, it could not have created itself automatically. Metaphysics tells us that something else could have created the universe as a whole and this something is treated as creator in metaphysics.

Summary: Difference Between Physics and Metaphysics • Physics is the study of the observable and is thus restricted to what we have in our universe while metaphysics is a philosophical study of being and knowing. • Metaphysics begins where physics ends • Many of metaphysical concepts are today accepted as laws of physics since modern physics is not just Newtonian physics but has advanced to quantum physics. •形而上学几乎是灵性，尽管不是宗教 • Physics explains only what can be explained using our knowledge base while metaphysics goes beyond our present knowledge.
