ABSTRACT: The Laws of Classical and Quantum Mechanics are well known. However, their origin remains mysterious and their interpretation controversial. It has been argued that this situation will continue until one manages to derive the Laws of Physics from some very first principles. In this paper, we use basic concepts of Differential Geometry to yield the Klein-Gordon equation and the Lagrange equations of Relativistic Mechanics without using the standard postulates of Quantum Mechanics, Special Relativity or even General Relativity.
