The five forms of liberation are:

Salokya, which allows to live on the same planet as the Lord

Sarsti, allows to benefit from the same opulence as the Lord

Samipya, allows to become a close companion of the Lord.

Sarupya, allows to have the same bodily features as the Lord to the exclusion of the signs proper to the Sovereign Person

Like the chariot of the air carries a scent from its source and immediately captures the smell, one who constantly absorbs himself in devotional service, in Krishna Consciousness, can capture the Supreme Soul, equally present everywhere.

Whoever worships the murti, the form of God installed in the temple, without knowing that the Supreme Lord is also present in the
