Prajna

How is Prajna achieved?

Solely through meditation? I know now everyone is gonna say yes as expected, I'm not sure though. Since Nagarjuna (I believe) taught that the root of suffering is ignorance (in contrast to Theravada who say it's craving) wouldn't the remedy then be Knowledge (or Wisdom)?

How to gain 'wisdom'??

This reminds me a lot of Advaita too

Start with a foundation of sila. Practice sila diligently and see what happens.

I think that all depends on how wisdom is defined. There's wisdom gained by study, and wisdom gained through direct experience. Study promotes intellectual knowledge. Meditation opens the possibility of direct insight, which is true wisdom as it leads to dispassion and unbinding. Both are okay but there is a Tibetan proverb which runs: 'An ordinary corpse is often found in the bed of a scholar'. Which is to say that study alone will not result in liberation.
Intellectual knowledge may provide valuable context for direct experience, but is never a substitute.

The corpse is but name and form, it was always 'anatta' and 'anicca'. The scholar is gone, gone, far gone, truly gone (Gate Gate Paragate Parasamgate).
