Why Practise without Gain?

Why practise if there's nothing to attain?

There is nothing to attain means that all states, all thoughts, all feelings, all experiences exist for less then a moment, that no matter what, everything is extremely transitory. Not seeing that, falling into ideological and emotional identities is when one falsely assumes there is something to gain and something to lose. Furthermore, it's not enough to know that there is nothing to attain, one has to overcome the habit of seeing in terms of gain and loss, hence the practice that takes the ultimate realisation as its view.
