When Hindu's die, they believe that they are reincarnated. The caste that they are reincarnated into, depends on their karma (good or bad). When they reach the top of the caste system and are free from all sins moksha happens, in other words their soul is set free.

I think that when a Hundu dies in there realigion they think that the duty they are doing now is good but when the recarnation stages happen they come back as a high worker depending on there life before hand, such as if you lived a truthfull life then you would come back as a high worker which means once you have been round the cycle 3 times your soul will be set free, but if you have live a bad life such as killing or lying then you would come back as a poorer worker.

this video has got some good infomation about hindus when they die. to me i think that if hindus do something good then that is good karma so when they die they will reincarnate and come back as someone better how ever if they do a bad karma they will not be reincarnated.

Hindus believe in samsara, which is the cycle of life, death and reincarnation. If in a previous life a Hindus Karma is good because they have done good actions then their vana (caste) will go up according to that, aswell as their dharma (duty). Hindus also believe that when a persons soul or atman is pure, then they will reach moksha, which is where they have broken the cycle of samsara, and they are left to rest.

Hindis beleive that when they die they get reincarnated. They either move up or down in the caste according to their karma- the karma is what good and bad deeds they have done eg killing someone or helping some. If they reach the top of the caste they reach moksha that means that there souls are free frm everything. This is called the samsara cycle

I think when Hindu´s they believe that they are reincarnated, this means they live a second life when they die, come back as something else E.G animal. If they have refilled their duty, they will have good karma. However,if they haven´t they will come back as something bad or boring. And will have bad karma and will not move up to an higher caste. Also, if they had reach the top of the of the caste system(braman), their soul, with be free and live forever as a spirt.

Hindu´s believe when they die they are reincarnated,this means they live a second life, when they die. So they spirt comes back it to a different form.E.G animal or a different human. So they can refill they duty and go higher up the caste system. This they had good karma and has refilled they duty, and soon we reach braman, then the next stage is moksha this means they will forever live as a spirt and will be free. However, if they have had bad karma they will do they cycle of the caste system until they have refilled their duties and are ready to live as a sprit.

Hindu’s believe that they go through a cycle of birth and rebirth (reincarnation) called Samsara. When a hindu dies, Karma determines the quality of his/her past life, and decides his/her next life. If the hindu’s life was a good one, the soul will be set free (moksha),and they will no-longer have to go through Samsara.

If the hindu’s life was a good one, they will move one step up the caste system, and when at the top, they will be at peace and will no-longer go through Samsara.

when Hindus die they believe they are reincarnated into someone or something else. they are reincarnated into the casta system and depending on how good or bad they did in their last life. if they did relly good they will be reincarnated into the top of the caste system and if they did really good moksha happens, which is when your soul is set free. though if you do bad you will be reincarnated into the btoom of the casta into aq servant or you might even be reincarnated into an animal.

When Hindus are born they are given a duty, if in theur life they have done their duty and have done good karmas, they get moved up to the next caste. The best caste they can be is brahmas, priests and teachers, if they sre this 3 times in a row they will get moksha, and their soul will be free. Hindus also beleive that in your life time you always have the same soul, just different bodies.

Hindus think that if they have a good Karma they will pass on to the next life which is called moksha. If they haven't got a good karma they will be re-bon and have to live again. Hindus aso have casts that show the responsibiltys at what age they are at in there time in there life.

I think that when Hindu's die, they believe that they are reincarnated. But they are only reincarnated when they recieve Moksha. It depends on what good or bad things you have done in your life. When Moksha happens, they will be set free from their life cycle.

Hindus believe that when Hindus die, they are reincarnated, depending on their karma. If they have been good, they will go up the scale, and when someone is completely pure, they are set free from the cycle.

I think that Hindus believe that when they die they are then reincarnated into something else in their karma. If they have good Karma they will be a higher rank and if they have a bad Karma they will be in a lower rank. I also think that if they get to the top their soul will be free.

They believe that if you are a good person and do good you will be higher up in the catse system in your next life. If a hindus soul is pure, they will achieve moksha, where you are free the of samsara cycle. I think that moksha is where a hindu is left to rest in peace.

I think this video is very intresting, telling me when hinduiasm began., (35000 years ago. It was good to know more about BRAHMAN and DHARMA.

They beleive in the SAMSARA, which brings birth and death according to their caste and how they behaved in the previous life. It judges what roll they will take on in the next life.

This video had some very useful facts, which will help me with my further studies in Hinduism.

From this video i have found out that Hinduihism was born in India 3500 years ago. As the religion grow it gathered the idea of many religions, like the river gathers the rain. They belive that Brahman is the main god and there are other gods linking of him. They name the cycle of birth rebirth as samsara. Hinduihsm teaches that people should remain in there Caste. Acient, complecst and a powerful force in the lives of 700,000000 Hindus.

Hindus believe in the Samsara which is a cycle of a life. Birth to death. When they die they are reincarnated or if they have achieved Moksha, their soul is set free. They achieve Moksha by having a good karma. If you have a good varna (caste) you will have a good karma, and if you reach the highest stage possible you have achieved Moksha.

Hindu's believe, when they die, they are reincarnated,which means they are reborn again to live another life. Their soul is set free when they have achieved Moshka. To do this they have to reach the top of the caste system. If they have a good karma when they die they get reborn into that caste.

Hindus believe the cycle of life, death then reincarnation and so on untill they have become pure and will be set free from it. If in a previous life a Hindus Karma is good because they have done good in that life then their caste will up 1 aswell as their dharma.

I think that hindu's think that when they die, depending on their karma, they get re-incarated into another human with either a better life or a worse life.They either move up or down the caste.This is called Samsara. Which is a constant cycle. They believe that once your soul is pure you will have reached Moksha which is a state of being when you are left alone and can be free from the cycle.
