The idea of Moksha, which means being free from the cycle of birth and death, is seen differently by the various schools of Vedanta. Each one has its own way of looking at this important concept.

1. Advaita Vedanta (Non-dualism):

   • In this view, Moksha is about realizing that the individual self is one with Brahman, the ultimate reality. It’s about seeing through the illusion that we are separate and understanding that our individual soul (Atman) and the universal soul (Brahman) are the same.

2. Vishishtadvaita Vedanta (Qualified Non-dualism):

   • This school views liberation as having a loving relationship with God (Ishvara). Here, Moksha means the soul keeps its unique identity while enjoying a close connection with the divine. It focuses on bhakti, or devotion, as the way to reach this state.

3. Dvaita Vedanta (Dualism):

   • Dvaita teaches that there is a clear difference between the individual soul and God. In this context, Moksha is about serving and being devoted to God. The soul remains itself but lives in harmony with and serves the divine forever.

Each of these interpretations shows a variety of ideas in Indian philosophy, pointing out the diverse ways we can think about freedom and liberation. It’s interesting to see how these different beliefs can connect with individual experiences and spiritual paths.
