What is metaphysics? (Metaphysics and Education) Cosmology, Theology, Anthropology, and Ontology

Описание: What is metaphysics, and why does it matter in education, philosophy, and our understanding of reality? This in-depth lecture offers a comprehensive, conceptually rigorous, and exam-oriented explanation of metaphysics as a core branch of philosophy. Beginning with the meaning, nature, scope, and objectives of metaphysics, the video systematically examines how metaphysical inquiry addresses fundamental questions about existence, reality, being, and the ultimate nature of the universe.

The lecture then explores the interdisciplinary relevance of metaphysics across key philosophical and academic domains. In the context of education, metaphysics is discussed as a foundational framework shaping educational aims, curriculum, pedagogy, values, and the conception of the learner and teacher. The video explains how different metaphysical positions—idealism, realism, naturalism, and pragmatism—influence educational thought and practice.

In relation to cosmology, the video examines metaphysical questions concerning the origin, structure, order, and purpose of the universe. The discussion connects classical philosophical perspectives with broader inquiries into space, time, causality, and cosmic order. The section on theology addresses metaphysical approaches to understanding God, ultimate reality, and the relationship between the finite and the infinite, including key arguments and philosophical interpretations.

The lecture further analyzes anthropology from a metaphysical perspective, focusing on the nature of the human person, mind–body relationship, freedom, consciousness, and moral agency. Finally, the video provides a clear and structured explanation of ontology (also known as isology) as the study of being and existence, clarifying core concepts such as substance, essence, existence, universals, and categories of being.

This video is especially useful for B.Ed., M.Ed., Ph.D. coursework, UGC NET/SET, competitive examinations, and anyone seeking a strong conceptual foundation in philosophy of education and metaphysical thought. The content is presented in a structured, academic manner while remaining accessible to beginners, making it suitable for students, educators, researchers, and lifelong learners interested in philosophy and educational foundations.
