Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Samsara is the continuous cycle of birth, death and rebirth. In order to escape this cycle one must realize everything is one, everything is Brahman. In other words, one’s individual soul is the same as the universal soul. When this is accomplished it is called moksa and marks the end of the samsaric cycle of rebirth.
