I enjoy debating spiritual ideas to find the truth. What is Sai Baba's perspective on using argumentation and logic for spiritual understanding?

πŸ“– Chapter 2

The text strongly cautions against a mind focused on debate and argumentation when seeking spiritual truth. Chapter 2 explicitly states, "Where there is a mind for argumentation, there is abundance of ignorance and Maya." It suggests that such a disposition is filled with bad thoughts and false logic, making a person unfit for self-knowledge. Instead of finding truth, they are devoured by ignorance. The text warns that for such a person, "there is no happiness in this world or the next, only unhappiness everywhere and always." The advice given is to not establish one's own side or refute another's, as it is a useless effort.
