Chapter 18 strongly refutes the idea that a Guru's teachings should be kept secret. It dismisses this notion as an "imaginary and a meaningless fuss." The chapter provides a specific example to support this, citing the sage Budhakaushika who narrated the Ram Raksha initiation he received in a dream to everyone for their enlightenment. This demonstrates that instructions, even those received in dreams, are meant to be shared for the benefit of all seekers.
