Jivanmukta

In Jainism and Advaita Vedanta, someone who has attained self-realisation

A jīvanmukta, literally meaning 'liberated while living', is a person who, in the Jain and Vedānta philosophy, has gained complete self-knowledge and self-realisation and attained kaivalya (enlightenment) or moksha (liberation), thus is liberated while living and not yet dead. The jivanmukt being is termed as sayogi-kevali or Arihant in Jainism. The state is the aim of moksha in Vedānta, Yoga and other schools of Hinduism, and it is referred to as jīvanmukti.
