Greed, an unquenchable thirst for riches, power, or material belongings, has wreaked havoc on human cultures throughout history. Despite being touted as a catalyst for development and achievement, the after effects exceed any immediate benefits by a wide margin. Greed erodes the foundation of human character, setting people on a path to moral decline and spiritual ruin. It weakens empathy and compassion by encouraging an unrelenting pursuit of one's own interests at the expense of others. People who are driven by an unquenchable desire for wealth and power become blind to the needs of other people, which promotes a culture of brutal rivalry and exploitation. Because people are never fully fulfilled by their material possessions, greed psychologically fosters discontent and dissatisfaction. It feeds a never-ending cycle of desire, wherein material wealth or other belongings are insufficient to satisfy the ravenous need for more. As a result, people are stuck in a never-ending state of restlessness and lack inner fulfillment. The refusal of Mrs Elina to make known to her family the truth about the plot of land in question ravaged the peace of the whole community and resulted in loss of lives.
