There is no relevance in accepting things as it is and the mind/intellect. Or intellectualism. Leaving aside there isnt one single actual person who has been proven to have become 'complete'.
Even those who 'break the bonds of intellectualism' still use their minds in choosing their way going back home after meditation, not eating rotten food, remembering to make their bed after waking up. Usage of mind never stops, because it is an integral part of existence and without it - well, you cant exist in this universe in any way.
This would be a third perspective. From

In the strict sense of analysis and linear thinking, this is so. Yet by depending upon that analytical ability, the attention is drawn from the true intelligence of the self, the true seat of wisdom, which is the mercy seat of purified emotion.
This statement is not easily understood.....by the intellect.
Spirituality is not experienced on the Intellectual level. When we have a Spiritual experience, it is raising the Consciousness. We have all experienced a "High" whenever we have discovered something profound. We have transcended the Intellect in the experience. Enlightenment cannot happen on an Intellectual level and happens in a Higher Conscious State, (which we are all yet to discover). By accepting the "Great Emptiness", we are admitting our ignorance on the Intellectual level. Once we accept that the True Spirituality is incomprehensible, then we have acknowledged "It's" True Spiritual State.
