Agreed, if the secret pertains only to oneself and impacts only oneself.  To keep a secret for the sake of control (power) is not acceptable in my opinion.  One who keeps secrets for vain, glory, or power over others can not be considered chivalrous.

Good point Sir Rodney, the difference between a secret pertaining to self is more or less a personal issue in contrast to holding secrets to exploit or to gain power for selfish gain.

GREAT summary, Joshua!  It's nice to see the group discussing the nuances of the path again.
