Moksha (Sanskrit:मोक्ष) is the Sanskrit word for "release" or "emancipation." The term generally refers to the release from identification with the Bodily Ego and the material world. Moksha arises as a consequence of the Enhanced Affective Response and Enhanced Intellectual Function that arises as a consequence of Connection.

Notes

When one achieves moksha, one no longer identifies with the Bodily Ego. Instead, one identifies with the Spiritual Ego.

Moksha has cognitive and affective components.

Moksha arises from the realisation of certain truths, like the existence of the Spiritul Ego, the nature of reality, and so on and so forth.

According to Hindu thought, Moksha is one of the four aspects and Puruṣārtha (goals) of human life, the others being dharma (virtuous, proper, "right", moral life), artha (prosperous, secure, stable "right" life), and kama (happiness).

The 8thc. Hindu Poem Vivekachudamani treats of Moksha.
