देवयान || Devayana (Path to the Realm of Gods) and पित्रयान || Pitrayana (Path to the Realm of Ancestors) is the description of the path of the soul's journey to the higher realms. Existence of Atma or soul, "after-death life", cycles of birth and death, and moksha (liberation from the cycles of birth and death) are the core principles laid down by the Vedas, on which the Upanishads elucidate the path to attainment of moksha. Attaining the brahmavidya is laid down as an important path towards the attainment of moksha. The path taken by a brahmajignasu and those go through the cycles of birth and death are elucidated in many vedic texts.

Sanatana Dharma through various texts and treatises expounded the existence of जीवात्मा || [[Jivatma]] (soul) and पुनर्जन्म || [[Punarjanma]] (rebirth or reincarnation) of the soul going through cycles of birth and death according to the person's Karma. When the Jivatma of an individual leaves the body or [[Upaadhi]] (carnal attibutes) it is called Death. Cycles of birth and death are based on the punyakarma and papakarma of the individual, and it goes on until the soul attains [[moksha]] (salvation).
This can be explained with reference to the [[छान्दोग्य उपनिषद् |Chandogya Upanishad]] of the [[सामवेद| Sama Veda]] (5-3), where [[श्वेतकेतु|Shvetaketu]], once came to the assembly of Panchalas, whose reigning monarch was [[प्रावहन जैवली|Pravahana Jaivali]].
