Something like that, but we still do not know the details. The folks working on the Theory of Everything reduce particles to vibrating 'strings' of energy. When a unification theory including gravity is finally developed, we will see through tedious mathematics, that all particles and fields are related to the gravitational field of the universe by a series of mathematical operations.
Gravity is in some sense the ultimate field.
