The conventional interpretation of Buddha's Four Noble Truths, and the 8-Fold Way, is of practices that will eventually lead to liberation. NonDualism says that liberation is available here and now when we let go of ego-ic thinking and recognize the true nature of the Self. From this perspective, the "way" is not the path so much as the way liberation unfolds as a result. I have found this approach, albeit unconventional, very helpful in my own journey.
