What did Sai Baba say about the nature of argumentation and its effect on one's spiritual progress?

Sai Baba issued a strong warning against a mind inclined towards argumentation. According to the teachings in Chapter 2, He stated that where there is a mind for argumentation, there is an abundance of ignorance and Maya. He explained that such a state lacks purity of self-interest and is filled with bad thoughts and false logic. Baba declared that a person with this mindset is not fit for self-knowledge and will only find unhappiness in this world and the next. He specifically advised against trying to establish one's own side, refuting others, or engaging in dualistic explanations, calling such efforts useless.
