Sharing of Knowledge
Wisdom and skills should be freely shared, not hoarded for personal advantage.
Vand Chakna extends beyond material goods to include knowledge. Sikhs are encouraged to teach and share their skills, recognizing that knowledge benefits all when distributed freely.
The treasure of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is inexhaustible. The more it is shared, the more it grows.
This extends the principle of sharing to intangible gifts.

- What Sikhism says about seva and service
What you know is to be passed on, not kept as private advantage. Skills are treated the same way as food.
