Jivanmukta...

Jivanmukta (from the Sanskrit words jiva and mukti) is someone who, in the Advaita philosophy of Hinduism, has attained nirvikalpa samadhi - the realization of the Self, Parasiva - and is liberated from rebirth while living in a human body.

Jivanmukta is a unique concept in Hindu philosophy, particularly in the school of philosophy known as Advaita.

The ultimate goal of Hinduism is liberation from the cycles of re-birth. This liberation is technically called 'moksha'.

In all schools of Hindu philosophy (except Advaita) liberation is necessarily an event beyond the experience of human beings.

But the Advaita school of Shankara envisages that human beings are already liberated and the soul is already free - one has only to realise (and to accept) this freedom. Souls who have had this realisation are called jivanmuktas.

There are three kinds of Prarabdha karma:

Ichha (personally desired),

Anichha (without desire)

and Parechha (due to others' desire).

For a self realized person, a Jivanmukta, there is no Ichha-Prarabdha but the two others, Anichha and Parechha, remain , which even a jivanmukta has to undergo.

In the sramanic traditions the jivanmukta is called an arhat.
