What are the spiritual benefits of engaging with Sai Baba's stories, and what did he warn against?

According to Chapter 2, Sai Baba described his stories as a 'resting place for the soul.' He promised that by hearing, singing, and contemplating them, devotion would be born and ignorance would be destroyed. This engagement fosters faith, leading to self-experience, self-bliss, and a state of happiness. Conversely, Baba strongly warned against a mind given to argumentation, stating that it is a sign of ignorance and Maya. He advised against engaging in dualistic explanations or trying to prove one's own side, calling such efforts useless and noting that such a person is not fit for self-knowledge.
