"Superior intelligence'' can be one's best friend and also one's worst enemy.
At times "superior intelligence" runs the risk of not willing to go beyond the intellect.
The intellect is just a tool to aid understanding and should not be rigid at any given situation.
Also we should not forget that any philosophy should be dynamic.
The words of Truth wont change but its expressions is fluid and oriented to time,place,person and also it evolves.

But mostly we are not finding any new expression of Advaita in a clearer perspective for present time and day.
It has sort of stalled and not progressing and has just become an intellectual badge worn with some amount of pride.
It's become the "intelligent's man's domain" and becomes stagnant.
