About the author

Ralph Waldo Trine

446 books62 followers
Ralph Waldo Trine was a philosopher, mystic, teacher and author of many books, and was one of the early mentors of the New Thought Movement. His writings had a great influence on many of his contemporaries including Ernest Holmes, founder of Religious Science. He was a true pioneer in the area of life-transforming thought. No other New Thought author has sold more books than he, his writings reaching far beyond New Thought circles out to the general public, which has bought and read Trine's books without ever knowing that they were New Thought.

He began his writing career in his early 30s. He was much influenced by the writings of Fitche, Emerson and the Scottish scientist/evangelist, Henry Drummond, his "What All the World's A-Seeking" expanding on a number of the themes covered in Drummond's inspirational classic, "The Greatest Thing in the World." His remarkable seminal book, "In Tune with the Infinite" was launched in 1897 and went on to sell over 2 million copies, and has stood the test of time for over a century. It was read by such luminaries as Queen Victoria, Janet Gaynor and Henry Ford. It is interesting that Henry Ford, pioneer of mass produced automobiles, attributed his success directly to having read "In Tune with the Infinite." After reading the book, Ford ordered it on mass, and distributed copies freely to high profile industrialists. It's a true mark of how powerful the book was and still is!

In its pages we find perennial truths that have been restated in many other forms in recent years, though perhaps never so clearly. By recognizing the power of our thoughts and by harmonizing our own with the Divine will, we will attract perfect peace, health, love, prosperity and success. A number of chapters from "In Tune with the Infinite" can be read on-line in the book "This Mystical Life of Ours" listed below.

I love discovering obscure books overflowing with hidden treasures. I found this book by accident browsing through free Kindle books.

I can't believe this book isn't more well-known. It gushes profound truth. It's one I'll refer to over and over again.

This is the non-fiction companion to "Magnificent Obsession." Any Christian who loves Ayn Rand should read this book and see which author is more closely aligned with the gospel.

A yield for a better and new world. Love and serve, if this two principles could be understand by all people in the world, then the world would be change in one night. The teaching of universal religion and metaphysics like the other, what we think would come to our actions. Ao we must guard our thinking, and imagine a wonderful things ao the universe could fulfill our thinking.
