Incarnation
The major religions that hold a belief in reincarnation, are Asian religions, especially Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism, and Sikhism, all of which arose in India. They all hold in common a doctrine of karma karman; “act”, the law of cause and effect, which states that what one does in this present life will have its effect in the next life. In Hinduism the process of birth and rebirth—i.e., transmigration of souls—is endless until one achieves moksha, or liberation literally “release” from that process. Moksha is achieved when one realizes that the eternal core of the individual atman and the Absolute reality brahman are one. Thus, one can escape from the process of death and rebirth samsara.The Editors of Encyclopædia Britannica Reincarnation - Alternate titles: metempsychosis; transmigration,Encyclopædia Britannica. — Incarnation life Avatar, Sanskrit avatāra “descent”, in Hinduism, the incarnation of a deity in human or animal form to counteract some particular evil in the world.
