The Litvak yeshiva is largely based on the Gra--at least in its world view. But also to some degree in its actual workings.
That it is looks upon Torah as being a 24 hour per day, seven days a week as being the goal.
But it does this with a high degree of keeping Torah and creating good character also.
The reason or reason I do not exactly walk on that path are more or less because something it seems I lacked the merit needed for it to work for me. [That is my considerations were mainly practical. If something does not work for me, even if it is in theory the best approach, it still does not change the fact that there is something that I simply can not change about my situation.]
So I have had to depend on the rishonim like Ibn Pakuda and Saadia Gaon that saw Physics as a part of Torah.
