Vidya Daan (Hindi: विद्या दान, Sanskrit: VidyaDaanam, विद्यादानम्) is the sharing or passing of information/Knowledge. Literally translated it means Knowledge charity. Living is learning, and the things learned should be shared and passed on, for a society to move forward. From times imemorial, Knowledge has been passed on form father to son, uncle to nephew, from Guru to Bhramacharya, etc. As this Flow of Knowledge continues to accumulate through generations, it becomes richer and richer. And the destruction of this flow leads to the setback of centuries of progress. Since creativity builds on the past, if there is nothing to create from, there will be almost nothing to create at all! It would be like reinventing the wheel.
