The source material in Chapter 2 is very clear about the detrimental effects of such behavior. It explicitly warns, "Do not establish your own side, do not refute the other side." Engaging in these dualistic explanations is considered a "useless effort." The text states that this mindset is a sign of abundant ignorance and Maya, leading to bad thoughts and false logic. The consequences are severe: such a person is deemed unfit for self-knowledge and is destined for unhappiness not only in this world but also in the next, finding only unhappiness "everywhere and always."
Based on the text, what are the negative consequences for a person who engages in dualistic explanations and constantly tries to refute others?
