Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hindus believe in a cycle of birth and death called samsara, in where the next incarnation of one’s life is dependent upon the karma, or actions taken in previous lives. They believe the soul reincarnates over and over again until it has achieved moksha, or liberation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Moksha (/ˈmoʊkʃə/; Sanskrit: , mokṣa), also called vimoksha, vimukti and mukti, is a term in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism for various forms of emancipation, enlightenment, liberation, and release.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are three ways embraced by Hinduism to achieve moksha: jnana, bhakti, and karma.

Detailed explanation-4: -In Hinduism, Moksha is the greatest goal of life. It occasions salvation (being protected). When a Hindu accomplishes Moksha, he or she is free from the samsara loop. Hindus consider that accumulation of excellent karma, or doing wonderful deeds, will end the cycle of samsara.
