In fact, becoming totally free from karma on one side and aspiring to get enriched in jñāna on the other is the way of the Sadhus and the Śrāvakas both to enrich their inner awakening and consciousness so that the path to Mokșa becomes clear, ultimately of course, even jņāna is expected not to become a bondage. 5.“ Essence of Jainism”, Pt.
