In Chapter 18, the 'meaningless fuss' refers to the belief held by some that what a Guru tells one person should not be shared with others, for fear that the words will become fruitless. The author strongly disagrees with this idea. To counter this misconception, the chapter presents a specific example: the sage Budhakaushika. This sage is cited as proof that sharing is beneficial, as he narrated his dream-vision of the Ram Raksha initiation to everyone for their enlightenment. The author uses this evidence to argue that spiritual teachings, even those received in dreams, are meant to be shared for the benefit of all.
