Detailed explanation-1: -For Hindus, the soul is bound to the samsaric wheel. 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.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hindus believe that there are four goals in human life: kama, the pursuit of pleasure; artha, the pursuit of material success; dharma, leading a just and good life; and moksha, enlightenment, which frees a person from suffering and unites the individual soul with Brahman.
Detailed explanation-3: -In Hinduism, the meaning of Dharma Chakra is “Wheel of Law”. It is believed the Hindu followers generally practice this “Wheel of law” in their religious routine. What is the meaning of Dharma? This word is derived from the word “Dhr”, meaning “maintenance” and “being firm”.
Detailed explanation-4: -Brahman is the unchanging, infinite, immanent, and transcendent reality which is the Divine Ground of all things in this universe. Though its nature is transpersonal it is sometimes considered anthropomorphically as Isvara, the Supreme Lord.
