The text from Chapter 2 draws a sharp contrast between devotion and argumentation. It states that by hearing, singing, and contemplating Sai's stories with faith, devotion is born and ignorance is destroyed. This leads to self-experience, bliss, and a state of happiness where the devotee gains knowledge of their true form. Conversely, the text warns that a mind inclined towards argumentation is filled with ignorance and Maya, leading to bad thoughts and false logic. Such a person is deemed unfit for self-knowledge and is destined for unhappiness. Sai Baba explicitly advises against dualistic explanations, calling such efforts useless and emphasizing that where there is faith, He is always subservient.
