Meaning of the cell
In this game, avarice is linked with the snake of envy, since it is envy, born of vanity, that leads to avarice. In a state of avarice, the player feels active hatred toward other players. He is too good for them, and what they have is also too good for them. Therefore, the player reasons, what belongs to them should become mine. He becomes ill-disposed and feels a passionate desire to possess the material goods of those around him. This feeling differs from greed, where only the material side is visible. Avarice is greed combined with envy. As the player becomes more and more avaricious, his thirst for wealth increases. And all the other problems of the first chakra also begin to torment him.
