Tattvajñatā (तत्त्वज्ञता) (Cf. Tattvajña) refers to “having knowledge of reality”, according to the Kularatnapañcakāvatāra verse 1.10cd-15.—Accordingly, “[...] Equality (with respect to the opposites), a condition free of thought constructs, detachment in the midst of the objects of the senses, contentment because free of attachment and non-dual—such is liberation in this life. Knowledge of reality (tattvajñatā), contentment, realisation of the supreme Self, right action—this is the purification of the sources of transient emotions. [...]”.
