Moksha

मोक्ष

The final liberation from the cycle of birth and death

Moksha is the ultimate spiritual goal across Dharmic traditions — liberation from the cycle of samsara (birth, death, rebirth). In Hinduism it means the soul's union with or realisation of Brahman. In Buddhism (Nirvana/Nibbana) it is the extinguishing of craving and the cycle of rebirth. In Jainism (Moksha/Mukti/Kaivalya) it is the soul's complete liberation from all karma. In Sikhism (Mukti) it is merger with Waheguru. Despite their different descriptions, all traditions agree: liberation is possible, it is the highest aim, and the path requires inner transformation.

A 60-second practice

For 60 seconds, let go of every 'I should', 'I need', 'I want'. Just be. That taste of non-attachment — however brief — is a glimpse of what the traditions call moksha.

Best at dawn or in deep silence.
