Afterlife and Moksha are the two options we have after we finish one chapter of the book called life. We are living and the body will die. The name will finish its journey. But the one who was alive has two options. The first option is an afterlife. The body dies but the mind and ego ME comes back in a new life, in a new body to settle the deeds that are unsettled. But the second opportunity, which is the ultimate goal of life, is to attain Moskha, Nirvana, Enlightenment, Liberation, Salvation, whatever you call it. When we realize we are not the body that dies, we are not even the mind and ego ME, then we realize we are the Divine Soul, and we are liberated and united with the Divine. That is Moksha. Therefore, the difference is either we come back in an afterlife or we attain Moksha.
Before trying to understand the relationship between Karma, Dharma and Moksha we have to keep in mind that Moksha, in its original form, was banned as it gives unlimited freedom to individuals, which would make the life of the individual and the society he lives in highly unstable.
Karma, Dharma and Moksha as we know today:
We believe that good Karma or good deed enables us to have a higher Varna in the next life and a bad Karma makes us have a lower Varna.
Moksha is defined as putting an end to cycles of reincarnations.
Dharma enables us to attain Moksha without getting any freedom. Moksha attained through Dharma just makes us follow Dharma effortlessly and redefine Dharma to a small extent.
The original Karma, Dharma and Moksha:
1. Karma:
Karma is a means to attain Moksha. Moksha enables us to have freedom to change our Varna.
There are four Varnas.
1. Brahmana
2. Kshatriya
3. Vaishya
4. Shudra.
All the four are a blend of rest and activity.
Karma enables us to blend rest and activity in four distinct ways. In other words there are four distinct kinds of Karma, each enabling us to have a distinct Varna.
2. Moksha:
Moksha is a means to unlimited controllable and reversible freedom. In Brahmana Varna there is no freedom. The freedom is more in Kshatriya Varna, still more in Vaishya Varna and practically unlimited in Shudra Varna.
3. Dharma:
Dharma is virtual law. It is law that we can't violate even if we want to. Thus, Dharma is eternal. Dharma is maximum in Brahmana Varna and least in Shudra Varna. In the redefined form we have to attain Moksha through Dharma only. Thus, when we attain Moksha we would not get any freedom but would just be able to follow Dharma effortlessly.
Thus, Dharma and Karma are means to attain Moksha.

According to Mythology if you do good you will gain positive karma. And you will go to Moksha or heaven according to your karma.
Dharma is the moral obligation a person has in their life, like a man has certain obligations as a man to fufill like providing for his family. Moksha is liberation. Once moksha is acheived, you can therefore break the chain of karmic consequences and your soul can move on.
The relationship between Dharma Karma Samsara, Moksha and the Caste Systemis is the accepting of the doctrine of transmigration. It was the rebirth and the complementary of Karma.

moksha is getting your real stage. 1)Bakthi with real meditation you may enjoy what is this stage( like you will have good CHAITHNYA and dont have any thoughts). it is not real moksha , where u just have connection with almighty energy . {this stage may mislead bcos you get good mental peace , so much energified athma in you , it is not moksha , just you are really getting transformation of peace & calmly ness from paramathma which is your real stage}. 2) MOKSHA where you really involved with almighty . There is nothing difference between you and god. Bakthi is the thing "you start inventing your self ", where moksha is "there is no difference you and paramathma".
