Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : Scriptures

Advaita Vedanta: 

• Advaita Vedanta is one of the schools of Hindu Vedantic philosophy and is based on the concept that the higher or true Self is identical to Brahman, the Absolute Reality. The term comes from the Sanskrit Advaita, meaning “not two,” Veda, meaning “knowledge,” and anta, meaning “end” or “goal.” It is non-dualism based on the Vedas, the ancient Hindu texts, specifically the Upanishads.
• In Advaita Vedanta, Jnana yoga is the path of knowledge to moksha, or liberation from the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Ashtanga yoga is also a viable path in Advaita Vedanta because it helps the yogi control the senses and direct awareness inward.
• Advaita is one of the two oldest schools of Vedanta, having been formed around the eighth century. 
• Devotion can be attained in various ways: by the solitary study of the scriptures, by performing one’s duty without self-interest, or by practical acts. That devotion is accompanied by an intuitive insight into God’s nature, or it may be a special kind of knowledge. 
• Bhakti may itself become a goal; the devotee’s adoration of Vishnu is more important than the release (moksha) that ensues from it.

For Advaita Vedanta, most of the information is gained through scriptures and thus, it holds scriptures as the most important pramana. Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.
