Achieving Moksha or Liberation

Moksha or liberation is the freedom from all Karmic matter (the karmas), owing to the non-existence of the cause of bondage and the shedding of all the Karmas. Thus complete freedom of the soul from Karmic matter is called Moksha.

Moksha is attained when the soul and matter are separated from each other. The separation is effected when all the Karmas have left the soul, and no more Karmic matter can be attracted towards it.

Moksha is the ultimate stage of salvation where the soul, the divine body of Man, merges with Brahman (or the universe), the ultimate reality. Sometimes people confuse moksha with heaven. However, Heaven is a transitional stage, it is not the ultimate one, and there is a higher sphere of the one God, Brahman, which is beyond words or descriptions.
