What was Sai Baba's perspective on argumentation, and why did he advise against it?

Sai Baba strongly advised against engaging in argumentation and dualistic explanations. In Chapter 2, he explains that a mind inclined towards argumentation is filled with ignorance and Maya, lacking the purity of self-interest and instead fostering bad thoughts and false logic. He stated that such a person is not fit for self-knowledge and is instead devoured by ignorance, leading to unhappiness in both this world and the next. He instructed his devotees not to waste effort on establishing their own side or refuting another's, viewing it as a useless effort that hinders spiritual progress.
