The text seems to suggest that logical debate is a bad thing. Isn't argumentation a valid way to find truth?

According to the source material, a mind oriented towards argumentation is not conducive to spiritual progress. Chapter 2 clarifies that where there is a tendency for argumentation, there is an "abundance of ignorance and Maya." It is associated with bad thoughts and false logic, making a person unfit for self-knowledge and leading only to unhappiness. The text explicitly advises against establishing one's own side or refuting another's, labeling such dualistic explanations as a "useless effort." Instead, Chapter 2 suggests that true understanding and bliss come from hearing and contemplating the stories with faith, which destroys ignorance and fosters devotion.
