In Indian philosophy, bondage means the liability of individual to birth and all consequent
sufferings while as liberation means complete cessation of sufferings. Perhaps the biggest
idea in man’s search of happiness is the concept of liberation. Human beings always
struggle for their existence like all other conscious beings. However, while the lower beings
always struggle more or less blindly without any conscious plan and purpose and motivated
by instinct, whereas man uses the superior gift of his intellect to understand the conditions
and meaning of the struggle and the device plans and instruments to ensure success in his
life. He wishes to lead his life in the light of his knowledge of himself and the world. The
present study represents an attempt to identify the desirable and necessary approach and
gives a detailed concept of liberation with special reference to Nyaya-Vaisesika and
Vedanta School. | |
