23. The Resolution of Abandonment.
A ship wrecked in the ocean. Fortunately, one ship was passing by there. The shipwrecked passengers were picked up by a passing ship. The crew in the helping ship shouted to the passengers to throw all the baggage away and hold the rope to be saved. All of the people threw away their baggage and saved. But one man in a golden vest denied taking off his vest, was drowned by that weight. It was possible to save the drowning people again. but, in his case he was too heavy to pick him up because of his golden vest. So he drowned.
Sometimes, when we give up something, you can find the way to live and get a golden opportunity of success. If you stick to something and never give up, you will be ruined eternally. It is said, “Those who valiantly give up can succeed dauntlessly. Those who can throw away the love for material, for formal things and for failures can find the new way of success. In Korean chess, the winner knows which one he lets die and live.
