Ananta explores the Ashtavakra Gita, defining true knowledge as the direct, timeless, and verifiable cognition of one's own unchanging reality, moving beyond mere conceptual understanding.

✦

True knowledge points to that which is unchanging, timeless, and directly verifiable.

We are moving away from conceptual knowledge toward the direct cognition of the truth.

Knowledge is coming to the realization of who we are in the most direct way.
