Physics and Metaphysics

The key difference between physics and metaphysics is that they are explaining different things. Modern science explains how the universe comes to be as it is, whilst the ancient philosophy explains how our experience of the universe comes to be as it is. For science the great miracle to be explained is the physical universe. For esoteric philosophy the greater miracle is human consciousness.
