"Moksha or Emancipation is not a product or effect of any action. That which is the product of anything is bound to be non-permanent (anitya) and as moksha is permanent and eternal, it cannot be supposed to be the resultant of anything; it is the realization of the self as it is by its nature, and this becomes possible only when the Karma of the Jiva has been exhausted."
