In Chapter 2, Sai Baba strongly advises against argumentation, linking a mind inclined towards it with an abundance of ignorance and Maya. He states that where such a mindset exists, there is no purity of self-interest, only bad thoughts and false logic. Such a person is deemed unfit for self-knowledge and is destined for unhappiness in this world and the next. Therefore, Baba explicitly instructs devotees not to establish their own side, refute the other side, or engage in dualistic explanations. He questions the value of such useless effort, guiding followers away from confrontational and logic-driven debates.
