Summary "What All The World's A-Seeking" by Ralph Waldo Trine is a philosophical treatise written during the early 20th century. The work explores themes of happiness, true greatness, and the vital laws that govern a fulfilling life, emphasizing the significance of selflessness and service to others as pathways to true satisfaction and growth. Trine's ideas aim to inspire readers to seek a deeper understanding of their lives and the world around them. The opening of the work establishes Trine's purpose and outlines the fundamental principles he intends to discuss. He poses essential questions regarding life’s meaning, power, and happiness, asserting that the pursuit of these truths has engaged humanity throughout history. The author introduces the core principle that true happiness and greatness are inherently linked to serving others rather than focusing on oneself. Through this lens, Trine encourages readers to embrace selflessness and community service as the means to a richer, more meaningful existence. The preface sets a tone of hopefulness and a call to higher living rooted in love and kindness. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
