About

The word 解脱 is formed through the conceptual merging of two actions: 解 (jiě), meaning to untie, loosen, or resolve, and 脱 (tuō), meaning to shed, slip off, or break free from. It visualizes a process where one first "unties" the knots of a binding problem, suffering, or attachment, and then completely "slips out" or "breaks away" from its confines. Together, they create a powerful compound metaphor for achieving a state of release, liberation, or emancipation from whatever holds one back.
