WHAT IS "SALVATION" FOR A HINDU? "Moksha” (the Hindu version of “salvation") is the reason Hindus perform practices like yoga, meditation, and mantras. However, moksha is not at all like Christian salvation. "The term used to describe freedom [moksha] from the cycle of birth and death, is the ultimate goal in the Hindu religious life; release from the bondage of the Law of Karma and union with the Supreme Being (Brahman). It is generally thought that one achieves Moksha through knowledge (Gyana), devotion (Bhakti), or right works (Karma).”; Hindus must perform all these practices to achieve their supposed salvation (samsara), breaking free from the fictitious endless cycle of birth, death, and rebirth (reincarnation). They believe we all must go through life after life to work off what we did in past lives (karma), until somehow we achieve a breakthrough that supposedly comes from using all the Hindu techniques designed to get us connected with the Hindu deities, which are spirits (demons).
