'''[[Enlightenment]]''', '''''Moksha''''', or '''Gnosis''' are words used to describe various forms of spiritual liberation, self-realization, and self-knowledge. In a general sense, it expresses a blissful state of existence of a human soul. It is most-commonly found in connection with the main Indian religions: [[Hinduism]], [[Buddhism]], and [[Jainism]]; however, it is also the expressed goal of numerous [[occult]] schools passed down from the early tradition of [[Gnosticism]].
'''[[Ritual magic]]''' (also called ceremonial magic, high magic or learned magic) encompasses a wide variety of rituals of magic. The works included are characterized by ceremony and numerous requisite accessories to aid the practitioner. Popularized by the [[Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn]], it draws on such schools of philosophical and occult thought as [[Kabbalah|Hermetic Qabalah]], [[Enochian]] magic, [[Thelema]], and the magic of various [[grimoire]]s. Ritual magic is major element in [[Hermes Trismegistus|Hermeticism]] and [[occult]]ism.


''Nirvana'' and ''moksha'', in all traditions, represent resting in one's true essence.
