This article is to study in
brief the cause of falling bodied and revolution of heavenly bodies and then
deals with famous theories in physics concerning general gravity. It is
intended to show that although gravitational force is the oldest and earliest
known interaction that has been studied and scrutinized by both philosophers
and scientists, its nature is yet to be discovered. The main objection that can
be made against general gravitation theory as the modern standard theory in
describing gravitation is that although it gives a proper description of geometric
property of space-time, it provides little explanation on its nature. In our
view philosophy regards the cause and nature of gravitation mainly within
things while physics attempts to find it from without. Therefore it is
essential first to study the nature of mass through philosophical
accomplishments rather than using purely empirical and mathematical view in
explaining the nature of things. Philosophers on the other hand should make use
of scientific discoveries particularly new observations in order that they are
able to reformulate their concepts and ideas deepening their understanding of
the universe on the basis of both physics and philosophy and finally giving a
better account of gravity
