Metaphysics is the branch of philosophy that delves into questions about the ultimate nature of reality, existence, and being. It goes beyond the empirical observations of the natural sciences, seeking to understand the fundamental principles that govern the nature of the universe.

Metaphysical inquiries often involve abstract and speculative reasoning, and the field has evolved over time with contributions from philosophers across different traditions. While some questions in metaphysics may have practical implications, much of the discipline is concerned with foundational and theoretical aspects of reality, aiming to uncover the underlying principles that shape our understanding of the world.
