This might be of some help: http://www.hibernate.org/hib_docs/v3/reference/en/html/tutorial-firstapp.html
Look at section: 1.2.5. - Startup and helpers
Here its show how a HibernateUtil can maintain the session.

Hi,

Thanks for replying. It just says how to get a SessionFactory instance right? I want to know how we can maintain a session in hibernate.

What do you mean by "maintain a Session"? Are you looking for a pattern to manage opening/closing sessions? If so, the transaction demarcated session stuff might be what you are looking for (see the documentation). Or are you looking for something such as the open session in view pattern? Or something else?
