| 35. Moksha
merging with Shiva Shiva moon, Nepal |
Moksha, perfect inner freedom-is the soul's release from samsara, the cycle of birth and death, attained after dynamic and personal yogic realization of Parasiva and resolution of all seed karmas. Having known the Absolute, there is no fuller realization, no greater knowing, no higher "experience." Even when God realization is attained, the soul body continues to evolve in this and other worlds until it merges with the Primal Soul as a drop of water merges with its source, the ocean. -Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami |
