According to Chapter 18, should a Guru's teachings given to one person be kept secret or shared with others?

Chapter 18 directly argues against the notion that a Guru's teachings should be kept secret. The author calls the idea that what a Guru tells one person should not be told to others an "imaginary and meaningless fuss." The chapter strongly advocates for sharing wisdom, stating that even instructions received in dreams can be told to all for their enlightenment. To prove this point, it cites the example of the sage Budhakaushika, who shared his dream-vision of the Ram Raksha initiation with everyone. The chapter reinforces this by comparing the Guru to monsoon clouds that shower the water of self-bliss on all, not just a select few.
