Chapter 18 contrasts the 'meaningless fuss' of keeping teachings secret with the Guru's ability to instruct 'each person according to their worthiness.' How do these two ideas coexist and what do they reveal about the nature of the Guru's grace?

Chapter 18 presents two seemingly contrasting ideas that work in harmony to explain the Guru's grace. The text states the Guru 'shows the true path through instruction to each person according to their worthiness,' implying a personalized approach. Simultaneously, it refutes the idea of keeping these teachings secret, calling it a 'meaningless fuss.' This reveals that while the initial instruction may be tailored to an individual's capacity, the resulting wisdom is a universal gift meant to be shared for the enlightenment of all. As Chapter 18 illustrates, the Guru is like the monsoon rain, showering bliss universally, but the amount each person receives depends on their individual receptivity or 'worthiness.'
