Is it the treasure that is cursed of the treasure hunter?

Is it the treasure that is cursed or the treasure hunter?

An inanimate object like gold can bring out the greed in people, but it's not the gold, it's the person. Say what you want but people who do not follow the principles in the Holy Bible "They shall wail and gnash their teeth outside the gates of Heaven"

1 Timothy 6:10

"For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs."

Proverbs 20:21

"An inheritance gained hastily in the beginning will not be blessed in the end."

Treasure (gold, silver, jewels) are inanimate and have no opinion of their owner. And there is no such thing as a "curse". Chicago Cubs excepted.

I decided I am not doing any favors by posting how to locate. I do not wish to feed people's greed. ANd that's the oe's who want to learn. On the other side you have those skeptics in need of exorcism. I'm not trained for that and I doubt anyone around here is. You try to help people and you open yourself to evil entering you. That's how Satan operates.

it's the Mind of the superstitious Treasure Hunter that is Cursed.

Why do you think Most families who believe they are Haunted,
are Quick to have House Blesssings , Crosses & Rosaries all over,
Yet their houses are Still believed to be Haunted the most.

"Belief" plain & simple

it's a baked in belief they have sinned & now they are gonna Get it

But WARNING ! Preaching is not Treasure Related

Sorry, boss. This branch of voodoo skates the razor-edge of religion and faith based operations. I'll repent. Er, I mean relent. ;-)

The hunter is cursed not the treasure. Think about it. Your brain is a powerful thing! If you believe in something like a curse, your brain focuses on that thing. When you think hard on something it happens or your brain makes everything that happens fit. Grandma used to say "Don't think bad thoughts or you'll bring them on yourself." "Think good thoughts and you'll wish them on yourself."

Riches get their value from the mind of the possessor; they are blessings to those who know how to use them, and curses to those who do not. -- Terence

The treasure itself is not cursed. It is the guilt and greed that the new owner brings to it - like Marley's chains in A Christmas Carol: "I wear the chains I forged in life."

the treasure hunter casts the curse upon himself by getting carried away with trying to find treasure, spending his earnings on equipment, and ignoring his family life. His family is the real treasure... and the rest should be a hobby under control!

How many threads like this have there been? I'm willing to give it a rest.

At times, I believe that it is the treasure that finds the person. The question of which is cursed, the treasure or the hunter, is irrelevant. Aside from the obvious saying of one person's trash is another person's treasure; one must question, why did this treasure choose me?

Nothing on this earth is cursed, human or other wise. In order to locate and retrieve a treasure cache you have to have the knowledge and equipment to get by certain things.
