Chapter 18 directly addresses the idea that a Guru's instructions given to one person should be kept secret. The author refutes this notion, calling it 'merely imaginary and a meaningless fuss.' To support this, the chapter provides the example of the sage Budhakaushika, who narrated his dream-vision of the Ram Raksha initiation to everyone for their enlightenment. This section of Chapter 18 argues that not only direct instructions but even those received in dreams can be shared, comparing the Guru to rain clouds that shower the water of self-bliss on all.
