He explains that Jesus is not referring to sacrificing a lower life for a higher one, but rather emphasizing a universal law of life where being eager to save life results in losing it, while being willing to lose it leads to finding it. This profound truth challenges the conventional wisdom of seeking self-preservation above all else.
