What is the Satcharitra's perspective on the conflict between intellectual pride and simple faith?

Chapter 12 strongly advocates for faith over intellectual pride, stating that the "stiffness of dry knowledge is fruitless." It warns against associating with those who are well-versed in scriptures but are intoxicated with pride and obstruct the path of devotion. The text posits that an ignorant person, through the power of simple, firm faith, can successfully cross the crisis of worldly existence. In contrast, the complex riddles of proud scriptural scholars often remain unsolved, highlighting that faith at a saint's feet is what truly destroys ignorance.
