Educational Q&A
Liberation arises from discriminative knowledge: understanding the subtle constituents of experience (often counted as the five tanmātras along with mind and intellect), recognizing the world as a transformation of three-guṇa Prakṛti, and knowing the Lord (Maheśvara) as the governing principle; such insight culminates in direct realization of the Supreme Brahman.
In Śānti Parva’s instruction on peace and liberation, Vyāsa continues a philosophical exposition: he describes the kind of knower—versed in subtle tattvas and in the operation of primordial Nature—who transcends mere theory and attains experiential vision of the highest reality, Brahman.
