Dr. Radhakrishnan says that Moksha is spiritual realization. The Hindu Dharma says, that a person does not live by bread alome, nor by his work, capital, ambition or power, or relations to external nature. One lives or must live by one's life of spirit.

This is what gives one ultimate satisfaction, and all other activities are directed to the realizations of this end<ref>Radhakrishnan, S. (1926). ''Hindu view of life''.

VISHISHTAD:- In this philosophy Jeevanmikti is not accepted. The liberated soul does not become identical with Brahman, but only similar to Brahman.
