Final step to Kaivalya

Just as a figure made of clay returns to the clay, the divine element Even the living soul ultimately merges into the Supreme Soul. Understanding this and surrendering one's life to God is called 'atma nividanam'. It is the culmination of devotion, the final step in the pursuit of salvation. It is the highest of the nine paths of devotion. 'Atma' means self and 'nividanam' means complete submission. The original meaning of self-denial is to surrender one's life, duties, happiness and sorrows to the will of God. All the things we do in the world are not done for selfishness, but when we consider the work itself as worship and do good deeds that are pleasing to that God, true dedication is possible. Then there will be no barriers between the devotee and God. Surrendering profit, loss and success to the will of God is the ultimate goal of self-reflection.
The main obstacle to self-reflection is pride. Complete surrender is not possible as long as there is a feeling of 'I am doing it, this is mine'. As man grows spiritually, he realizes the truth that he is only a material being. As the Ganges loses its name and form when it merges with the ocean and becomes Kadali, the devotee should merge his personality in the Divine.
The story of Emperor Bali in Vamanavatara is a great example of soul renunciation. Vamana, who asked for three feet of ground - after measuring the earth and sky with the first two feet, asked for the position of the third foot, and Bali offered his own head. He sacrificed not only the kingdom but also his pride and became immortal. Also the Siva devotee Siriyala is the supreme example of self-revelation. The unshakable faith that everything belongs to God shows his surrender. It is a mythological story that Lord Shiva appeared and granted salvation to a Syrian who succeeded in the ordeal.
Soul reporting does not mean going to the woods. Offering everything to God while remaining in Samsara; performing duty without hope of result; Seeing the Divine in all beings; Letting go of a sense of entitlement even over what is dearest to us. This verse in the Bhagavad Gita says that God will take care of the welfare of such a devotee.
Tesham nityabhiuktanam yogakshemam vahamyaham..
Atman nividanam, the final touch of Kaivalya, liberates the seeker from the cycle of birth and death and bestows eternal blissful moksha. Only those who empty themselves will see God in full.

Some people's life spreads limited light like a lamp, while others' life shines like the sun on the world. They also have doubts about which god to pray to when they are in trouble.
