In Tune with the Infinite

Ralph Waldo Trine1897Book · A few eveningsFree to read

In brief

Subtitled Fullness of Peace, Power and Plenty, Trine's book became one of the best-selling New Thought titles and carried the movement's ideas to a mass audience at the turn of the century.

Trine writes warmly and without jargon. His central idea is that a person who lives in conscious harmony with the Infinite Spirit finds health, love, wisdom, and plenty following naturally. Each chapter applies that one idea to a different part of life.

Key ideas

  • Spirit is the central fact of the universe, and each life shares in it.
  • Conscious union with the Infinite is the source of power.
  • Health follows from inner harmony.
  • Love and service open the way to plenty.

In the author’s words

“The great central fact of the universe is that Spirit of Infinite Life and Power that is back of all, that animates all, that manifests itself in and through all.”Ralph Waldo Trine, In Tune with the Infinite
