It’s a Machlokes HaPoskim whether one needs to have Kavanah even while performing a BAL”CH or whether having Kavanah (that we’re doing it because Hashem commanded) while performing a BAL”CH defeats the purpose. It’s a fascinating conundrum. I thought that one could be Yotzei both by having in mind that you are doing it because this is what a good person would do and that HKBH wants us to be good people.
