MOKSHA: An ultimate purpose of life
Truly saying, I do not have great knowledge of Vedas and Upanishads, but I am always keen to learn values from them. After watching the “Upanishad Ganga: 12th Episode “MOKSHA”, I got to learn the real meaning of this word.
Moksha is the ultimate liberty, the goal of human life, liberation of the soul from the cycles of birth and death, in other word to become fearless of losing anything. Once you become fearless you will feel the everlasting happiness and great confidence within yourself.
In our daily life, the infatuation to the illusory world of the senses and as illusion of worldly love and attachment is ruling over human beings, these are the part of our life. It is very hard to give up or change any favourite thing, any liability and habit.
Moksha is “Param Purushartha”, liberation from all bondages is our right. Real meaning of MOKSHA is to give up all the odds (Physically and mentally) like ego, selfishness, greediness etc.
Everyone faces challenges in life. If we aim to achieve something, we usually have a goal in mind that is what motivates us. Like in football or hockey we aim at the target and in exams we aim to study and pass through.
There are many goals like this in life, but what are the most important things in life that we shall really be trying to achieve?
We live to learn our lessons. After we die we are reborn into a different body. Means, if we do something wrong and do not meet the goal; we have to start all over again. If you do it right you are free.
There are some ways to move-up yourself to Moksha: the path of knowledge, good works, love and devotion for others and control over senses.
