An envious person sustains a loss to himself before causing a loss to whom
he envies..
Brief description

and trying to deprive them from that blessing, or causing a loss to them in
other ways.
In fact, an envious person always activates as a retardation factor not a
developmental factor.
Envy is a big moral disease and in psychological view, the jealous person
suffers more loss and also is melted, retarded and humiliated more than others.
Thus it is better that he try for precedence instead of causing others to be
retarded.
