Even now Guruvayurappan s holding a lotus in his hand. When the crocodile caught the leg of Gajendra it aksed for help with its relatives the elephantherd. No other elephants came for rescue. Gajendran thought only Lord is the source. Immediately it screamed Aadhimoolame - the lord killed the crocodile with his chakra and gave moksha to gajendran. | |

Duplicate of How can we know that an Aatma got Moksha? | |
| Aug 11, 2016 at 15:37 | comment | added | Sai | @SudipS Good question. This subject is extremely deep and lengthy. So we will discuss more in chat if you're interested. However in short, as Swamiji says, in a strict sense, there is no proof for Moksha. However, the saints act as guides, to show you that they have attained JivanMukti (Liberated while alive). Moksha is not necessarily about freedom from rebirth, but rather freedom from body consciousness. | |

| Aug 11, 2016 at 9:01 | comment | added | Tezz | @SudipS if you want 100% proof then realize yourself... this is the only way... Practice Advaita Philosophy... snd slowly you will finally become JeevanMukta through in this very birth... All the Best... | |
| Aug 11, 2016 at 8:58 | comment | added | SudipS | @Tezz, as you rightly said earlier, these stories are just stories & can't be taken as proof of attaining Moksha. Thanks anyways, i will be delighted to hear more from you on the subject. :-) | |
| Aug 11, 2016 at 8:52 | comment | added | Tezz | @SudipS story of Shabari, story of Kamsha, Ayodhyavaasi, Guha, Muchukunda, Ghantakarna (waiting but fixed after present Indra), story of Jatayu (even bird), story of Shuka (Vyasas son), etc... see Shanti Parva chapter 320 there Story of Suka attaining moksha is described.. hinduism.stackexchange.com/questions/12137/… full story is in this chapter : sacred-texts.com/hin/m12/m12c033.htm | |
| Aug 11, 2016 at 8:41 | comment | added | SudipS | @Tezz, please inform me about some of the stories. | |
| Aug 11, 2016 at 8:34 | comment | added | SudipS | What you are saying is the path of rightousness, the same things that any Hindu scripture talks about the correct way of leading a life. But Moksha or liberation from the cycle of birth & death is something else. Please enlighten me. | |
| Aug 11, 2016 at 8:30 | comment | added | Swami Vishwananda | Why wait until death? Why not while living? The proof of moksha is in one's own direct perception of It. Until then it is all indirect. Anyone else's perception of moksha is no help to you. Only your own direct perception will help you. The way to perceive It is through hearing (sravanam), reflecting (mananam), and meditating (nididhyasanam). | |
| Aug 11, 2016 at 8:22 | comment | added | SudipS | Examples like what? Yes i have known a few Saints but the self realization & other qualities that you are talking about is their qualities, which they have developed & preached. But all that does not prove that they have attained Moksha. Correct me if i am wrong, Ramakrishna is a great example, how can you say that he has attained Moksha ? Can he not been born in a different human or animal form in his next birth? | |
| Aug 10, 2016 at 18:12 | comment | added | Sai | Yes, if you ever got the blessing to associate yourself with a Self-realized Saint, then you will at once realize the peace of mind, the complete control over one's senses, the absolute bliss and the incredible love that emanate from a Saint of such realization. Such saints (Sri Ramakrishna, for example) are living examples. All the best | |

| Aug 10, 2016 at 14:04 | comment | added | Tezz | There are countless stories in scripture which describes Moksha attained by various humans... but don't know whether this becomes a proof for you or not... | |
