What ways does Hinduism teach as to how one may attain liberation?
There are 3 main paths that Hindu's take:The Path of Ritual Action - This basically means following the Dharma (Universal Law) that corresponds with your station in life. An example would be, that if you are a servant, to be the best possible servant you can be. The goal is to satisfy Karmic Law and either be reincarnated into a higher caste, or to be so good that you completely satisfy Karma and attain Moksha upon death.The Path of Knowledge - This means to devote oneself to attaining knowledge and understanding of what the Dharma is for you, how to unite with Brahman (the ultimate reality) and the best way in which you can satisfy Karmic Law and thus escape Samsara.The Path of Devotion - This is where a person may devote themselves to a particular deity in order to gain favor. The end goal is to form a connection with this deity so that they will want to be united with you in the spirit realm and pull you out of the cycle of rebirth.
