Different paths to moksha are described in Hinduism, including the paths of knowledge (jnana yoga), devotion (bhakti yoga), meditation (dhyana yoga), and selfless action (karma yoga).

In summary, Hinduism teaches that life is governed by the law of karma, where actions have consequences, and individuals are bound by the cycle of reincarnation (samsara) until they achieve moksha, liberation from this cycle. These concepts are central to Hindu philosophy and greatly influence the moral and ethical framework of Hindu society.

What does it Mean to Have Faith in God?
Bhakti saints teach us to develop a personal relationship with God to enhance our devotional sentiments, and faith is the means through which we begin to develop that relationship. Swamiji says that deep faith in God is reflected in the mind’s exclusive attachment to God at all times. At present, we are still under Maya because our faith in God is weak. When we firmly believe without a shadow of a doubt that God is the creator, the ocean of bliss, our eternal father, the possessor of infinite shaktis, is all-pervading, seated in our hearts, and presents us with circumstances to elevate our soul, we will attain Him. This is an example of unshakable faith that increases devotion and love for God/Guru.
