Educational Q&A

Liberation is assured for the person who understands Pradhāna/Prakṛti along with its guṇas and tattvas, and who embodies that knowledge by abandoning possessiveness (mamatā) and egoism (ahaṅkāra).

Vāyu-deva is instructing the listener in a philosophical-ethical teaching aligned with Sāṅkhya: true insight into the foundational principles of existence must be accompanied by inner detachment, which leads to mokṣa.
