"The Greatest Thing Ever Known" by Ralph Waldo Trine is a book that explores the concept of the divine essence within each individual. Trine, drawing on philosophical and theological perspectives, argues that our true selves are one with God, an infinite and unchanging source of life and power. He suggests that achieving a conscious realization of this oneness unlocks the divine energies within us, leading to a state of blessedness, peace, and abundance in daily life. The book presents the teachings of both Jesus and philosopher Fichte, who both emphasized the importance of recognizing this inherent divinity and living in accordance with the divine will. Trine outlines a simple method for cultivating this awareness through constant meditation on the divine presence within us. He concludes that the true purpose of life is to live in conscious union with God, manifesting the qualities and powers of the divine in all aspects of our being.
