Guru Nanak Dev Ji and the True Bargain

A traditional sakhi about choosing compassionate service over personal profit and recognising nourishment of those in need as a truly valuable bargain.

In this traditional retelling, young Guru Nanak Dev Ji is entrusted with money for trade. Encountering people in need, he uses the resources to provide food rather than pursue ordinary profit. The sakhi is remembered as a lesson in seva, compassion, and seeing spiritual value beyond material calculation. Details differ across retellings; readers are encouraged to consult established Sikh historical sources.
