What is Sai Baba's perspective on argumentation and intellectual pride?

According to Chapter 2, Sai Baba strongly cautions against a mind preoccupied with argumentation, stating that where it exists, there is an abundance of ignorance and Maya. Such a disposition is seen as unfit for attaining self-knowledge, as it is filled with bad thoughts and false logic, leading only to unhappiness. The text explicitly advises, "Do not establish your own side, do not refute the other side, do not engage in dualistic explanations." This warning directly addresses the initial character of the author, Hemadpant, who was described as being proud of his wisdom and prone to argumentation before his transformation.
