Beliefs about life after Death
ATMAN
The ATMAN, soul, is permanent, but the body isn't permanent and so can change. Hindu's believe that the ATMAN is REBORN many times.
This is known as SAMSARA (REINCARNATION)
KARMA
If a person is good in their life they will get GOOD KARMA and so in their next life, they will be REINCARNATED to be closer to MOKSHA, one with God. They will then have a higher VARNA, caste, and a higher DHARMA, duty.
If a person is bad in their life they will get BAD KARMA and so in their next life, they will be REINCARNATED to be further away from reaching MOKSHA, one with God. They will then have a lower VARNA, caste, and a lower DHARMA, duty.
