The Long Trajectory

About the Book

The title says it all. Eric Weiss is going for the gold. I’m watching and believing.

—Michael Murphy, Cofounder of Esalen Institute Author of The Future of the Body

As I read Eric Weiss’ The Long Trajectory, I am often lifted beyond understanding into ecstasy. Integrating the physical, transphysical, and spiritual dimensions, Weiss offers a metaphysical model that heals the past and opens the door to a new future for humanity.

—Dr. Christopher M. Bache, Youngstown State University Author of Dark Night, Early Dawn

What happens to us after we die? Do we cease to exist? Do we survive bodily death? Do we live again in a new body? Without answers to these questions, we cannot know who and what we really are. In The Long Trajectory, author and philosopher Eric Weiss explores these fundamental questions.

Inspired by the philosophies of Alfred North Whitehead and Sri Aurobindo, Weiss develops a new metaphysical system he calls “transphysical process metaphysics.” It rethinks space, time, matter/energy, consciousness, and personality in ways consistent with the findings of science, while providing a coherent explanation for the survival of the personality beyond death and how it can reincarnate in a new body.
