ReincarnationSamsara is the wheel of rebirth which means the soul
is reborn from one life form to another.
People may be reincarnated at a higher or lower level of existence depending on their karma from their
present life.
People may be reborn as plants or animals or they may be elevated to a higher caste as a human.
Death is not final for Hindus as they expect to be reborn many times.
