'''[[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]].
'''[[Paganism]]''' is a term first used in the fourth century by early [[Christianity|Christians]] for people in the Roman Empire who practiced polytheism or ethnic religions other than [[Judaism]]. The overarching contemporary pagan revival movement which focuses on nature-revering/living, pre-Christian religions and/or other nature-based spiritual paths, and frequently incorporating contemporary liberal values. This definition may include groups such as [[Wicca]], Neo-Druidism, Heathenry, and Slavic Native Faith.


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