Vand shakko   Means, we should try to help the needy and even should try to distribute food and other good things between others who are in need and that could be the reason why Sikhs used to have Langar System in which all are allowed free food which is strictly vegetarian.

Naam japna means , we all should preach the name of God and should stay away from the five thieves which are : Lust, Rage, Greed, Attachment to things which doesn’t belong to us, Conceit.
