“There are five kinds of liberation: sÄlokya, sÄmÄ«pya, sÄrÅ«pya, sÄrṣṭi and sÄyujya.

Purport

SÄlokya means that after material liberation one is promoted to the planet where the Supreme Personality of Godhead resides, sÄmÄ«pya means remaining an associate of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, sÄrÅ«pya means attaining a four-handed form exactly like that of the Lord., sÄrṣṭi means attaining opulences like those of the Supreme Lord, and sÄyujya means merging into the Brahman effulgence of the Lord. These are the five types of liberation.
