If your good deeds outweigh your bad ones, then the soul is liberated from the eternal cycle of birth and rebirth. This liberation or salvation is called moksha.

First, you must try to detach yourself from the desires, anger, fears, and frustration of this world. This is how you can achieve liberation in this life. This paves the way for liberation from the eternal cycle of birth and rebirth in the afterlife or after death.

According to Vedantic philosophy, it is possible to achieve liberation in this life itself. One does not need to leave this world.

All one needs to do is to free oneself from the negativity of the world and acquire true knowledge of the soul (atma) and the universe (brahma).

On the other hand, there is liberation after death. This is called videhamukti or liberation after death. The soul finally frees itself from the pain and suffering and experiences infinite bliss, knowledge, and power.

A person who is jivanmukta, experiences liberation both during lifetime and after death. Therefore, he becomes Paramukta. While jivanmukta has the body, paramukta and videhamukta are without the body.
