The window cleaner

An illusion of position

The notion of a better financial life, sounded great to Siin and he needed more blueprint to the process of actualising it. There were many things that made a man Happy and Siin believed that money was the most important on the list.

" Peak of financial resources sounds great to me. " Said Siin with a tone of serious enthusiasm in his voice. He had faced all the consequences of being poor and the notion of ditching the ratchet life for good, made lots of sense to him.

" In nature , some things would have to come first and others follow. This is the natural order of life . A distortion of such an order often leads to a compromise in balance. To fare life without a balanced distribution of energy is simply a thing to be avoided as much as possible. Wealth is virtue that is unlocked by wisdom. A wealthy fool is soon to depart from with his wealth and a wise man is gradually to become rich." Said Gamblesense who sat calmly gazing admiringly at a blue flamed candle that burnt away in the quiet room. Where he and Siin Sat.

" I want to be wealthy .It's very Paramount if I may have any chance to avenge Kaltumi. General Zaylan is a tough tyrant and without money. I am no match for him. " Said Siin who had been in awe that the Blue flames had no effect on his palms even when he seemed to scoop it in both palms. It was neither hot nor cold.

" Which do you think comes first. Life or death?." Gamblesense asked in a relaxed tone.

" I'm sure it's life. It's the beginning of all beings and death seconds it . " Said Siin with an iota of doubt.

" I see. So you agree that after life death comes next. So what happens in the state of being dead?" Gamblesense asked with a smile.

" Well, I believe after life , then death comes next. A persons soul transist to the realm of the dead and ..." Said Siin who had struggled to coin a right word.

" Go on Lad, I'm all ears ." Said Gamblesence with a calming tenor.

" Living . They transit and keep on living in the land of the dead. So they never really die do they. It's just a switch of realms. "

" A body is mortal but no soul is . I am a being without a body. I can never die. I have no definite beginning and no definite end. A soul can always sprout in another body when called upon by the supreme order. Life and death becomes indifferent on the scale of position. It's a simply a circle that has no end and has no beginning. "

Said Gamblesense and brandished his trademark nodding.

" Merverllous indeed. So how does it connect to the elements of wealth and wisdom." Siin said as he looked into the foggy hood of Gamblesense with a bit more seriousness.

" Knowing the basic foundations of your situations is the first step to gaining a balanced energy. Understand life for what it is , then understanding the elements of life will follow suit. " Said Gamblesense in his usual calm tenor.

" I do not know how to be rich . Please teach me how. " Said Siin with a great seriousness

" Good . A wise man seeks for directions when lost and seeks for clarification when in doubt. You are learning fast." Said Gamblesence and continued . " There are many ways to become wealthy in the realm you come from , but one element these ways have in common is Skills. An individual with a distinct skill that is sorted by many is one who is already on the path to becoming wealthy. I will teach you a skill or two . That would prove vital to your success in the near future."

"'I will be very grateful to learn Sir." Said Siin, almost interrupting his teachers speech.

" The skill of the hands . A skilled hand brings joy to it's posseser , it conveys healing to the ailing . It becomes sorted by many and can take one to the pinnacle of wealthiness. A skill of the mind, brings understanding to the deepest of puzzles. Great gamblers are great not because they rely on luck but because they have an understanding of the constituents of getting lucky. "Said Gamblesense ,and nodded assuringly to his words.

" My mother had skilled hands, she was a great a surgeon who carried many free operations for many people in Congo. She wasn't even rich . I want you to train me on becoming the best Gambler that ever existed. " Siin said and sighed softly.

" Your mother was a helper to the poor. If she had helped the rich , she would have been rich . The category of people you transact with can go a long way in determining the growth of your wealth. If you must transact with the poor to get rich ,then you must a device a means to get a penny or more from every poor person alive . A whole lot of them . You would be rich in no time. If you must be rich from dealing with the rich , you must aim to get a chunk of fortune from a few of them . Most rich people hate to depart with their money. But when the odds are against them . They could give it all away just to exit a terrible situation. " Said Gamblesense as a he eluded a glorious aura.

" Yes. My mother was a free health care worker . She never lived for money. It was strictly to help people." Said Siin and waved his head slowly, feeling sorry for his mother's choice of customers.

You will return as a skilled surgeon. Your mothers gifts were passed down to you . It only needs to be hannassed and explored. Now ,it's time to meditate . Close your eyes and connect to the world around you. Incide your soul as far from your body as possible, till it appears like you are dead to others. Only then can your soul travel to a state where it can communicate with beings like Kaltumi. " Said Gamblesense as he made a slow hand gestures to buttress his points.

" Okay , so when do I start the training on becoming a surgeon.?" Siin asked , trying to hide the curiosity in his voice.

" As soon as you are done mastering the incidious meditation. You are already a born surgeon. It's time to unlock what has been kept locked." Said Gamblesense with a smile.

" I have no Knowledge about surgery. No one would believe me even if I claim to be a surgeon. " Siin said feeling disturbed about the future.

" That is where value judgement comes to play. Show them a practical result. Once you do it ones , everyone would believe you and you will be sorted by many. A wealthy man would part with half of his fortune to stay alive. However showing mercy or not showing it is a path you must walk on your own."

" Won't that be like scamming people. If I lied to be what I'm not. Where is the intergrity in that ?." Said Siin as he looked to his master for answers.

" You are now a valuist. A valuist is someone who doesn't accord cognizance to good or bad. They only see means and processess that leads them to achieving a definite goal. Success is not for the frail minded neither is it for the coward. You must be steadfast in thoughts and quick to take advantage of a profitable situation." Said Gassol and wrapped his words with a nod or two amidst  the serene calmness of a meditating budha priest.

" Wow! Just wow . " Said Siin who was flabbergasted by the words he had heard.

Now, close those eyes and commence the incidious meditation." Said Gamblesense as he also closed his eyes to perform his meditation. Siin followed suit.
