About the author
Ralph Waldo Trine was an influential American writer, philosopher, and advocate for animal welfare. Born on October 26, 1866, in Mount Morris, Illinois, he became an important figure in the New Thought movement, which emphasized the power of positive thinking, spirituality, and the mind's role in shaping reality. Trine's philosophy integrated aspects of Christianity with the New Thought principles, advocating for a life of personal growth, self-realization, and alignment with divine principles. His works, particularly - In The Hollow of His Hand, inspired many individuals seeking spiritual and personal transformation. In addition to his philosophical contributions, Trine was also deeply committed to the welfare of animals and supported causes that promoted kindness and compassion toward them. Throughout his life, Trine wrote extensively, offering guidance on how to live a peaceful, harmonious, and spiritually fulfilling life. He passed away on February 22, 1958, at the age of 91 in Claremont, California, leaving behind a legacy of writings that continue to inspire those interested in New Thought, spirituality, and personal development. His parents were Albert and Mary Trine.
