The Concept of Salvation in Indian Philosophy and Yogic Text

Authors(2) :-Arati Kumari, Dr. Shudhanshu Chaubey

The core of Indian philosophy is moksha. Moksha literally means ‘Mukti,’ or the cessation of pain. Moksha holds the top spot in all philosophies, including Yoga. All ideologies have acknowledged Moksha, not with standing possible variations in perspective, form and methods of achieving it. Many philosophies have embellished Moksha with metaphors such as Heaven, Bodhisattva, Arhat, Mukti, Nirvana and Kaivalya. The goal of all philosophies is the same but the methods for achieving Moksha have been explained differently in each. While the idea of Moksha has varied among Indian traditions, Moksha is the ultimate aim of all. Every philosophy, whether theistic or atheistic, has acknowledged Moksha.
