Quark in the antechamber of the Divine Treasury in his dream.

According to Ferengi spiritual beliefs, the Divine Treasury is the afterlife to which financially successful Ferengi progress after death. It is believed to be made of pure latinum. (DS9: "Little Green Men"; VOY: "False Profits")

The Registrar greets the recently deceased at the gates to the Divine Treasury. If the Registrar finds the arrival worthy, he will accept their bribe and usher them inside. (DS9: "Body Parts") Once inside, the deceased are met by the Blessed Exchequer who reviews their profit and loss statements. If a Ferengi leads a profitable life, they are allowed to bid on a new life under the supervision of the Celestial Auctioneers. (DS9: "Little Green Men")

By 2375, over forty percent of the Ferengi population reportedly no longer believed in buying one's way into the Divine Treasury. This was a consequence of the sweeping reforms Grand Nagus Zek had instituted by this time. (DS9: "The Dogs of War")
