The Path of Knowledge (Jñāna)
If bondage is a case of mistaken identity, the cure is simply to know.
Jñāna is liberating knowledge — not mere book-learning but the direct, transforming realization of who one truly is. For Advaita Vedānta, bondage is fundamentally a case of mistaken identity, so the decisive remedy is correct knowledge: when ignorance ends, liberation is already present. The path of knowledge proceeds by hearing the teaching, reasoning it through, and meditating until it becomes direct insight.
