    Can I go to heavenly realm even if I am attached to my mother no for heavenly realm not moksha

    4 months ago 54

    In Jain dharma, attachment (rāga) is a bondage of karma. So strong attachment to your mother is not a cause of moksha.

    For the heavenly realm (devaloka):

    • It is possible only if punya karma is strong.
    • But deep attachment, obsession, or grief at the time of death can disturb the soul’s state and may lead to lower rebirth, not heaven.
    • Simple love or respect for a mother is different from mohāttva. In Jainism, the problem is not natural affection alone, but clinging and delusion.

    So the answer is:

    • Attachment to your mother does not give moksha.
    • Heavenly birth is possible only through punya, but attachment can weaken that possibility.
    • The best Jain path is to keep love without bondage, with equanimity, ahiṃsā, and detachment.

    If you want, I can also explain this in simple Digambar/Shwetambar perspective.
