Lose to win more

Losing oneself may sound a little cliche'ish to some, but it's true, as those who have personally trialed this know. The more one loses in the world, the more one gains in the celestial hereafter. (we refer to those worldly traits such as pride, greed, self etc. and not necessarily items of wealth - although these too can be to the detriment of the holder thereof.) "Seek first the kingdom and then shall all these things be added unto thee." This is about the most sage and priceless counsel we can follow and, when done in all sincerity, the kingdom will "light up" with the most valuable possession one can imagine, and that is; "Eternal Celestial Glory". (with the gods)
