Explanation

Hinduism is a major religious and cultural tradition of South Asia, which developed from Vedic religion.  Hindus believe in the doctrines of Samsara which is the continuous cycle of life, death, and reincarnation and karma  which the universal law of cause and effect. Hindus belief that when someone attains Moksha his/her soul is merged with the God meaning that there will be no separation . They belief that since Moksha is attained the soul is trapped into endless cycle of rebirth. Their belief about reincarnation is that if a person dies in Dharma there is no birth again but if he/she dies in Karma then there is birth again thus the reincarnation is affected by KARMA or Action. It is that Reincarnation allows one to work toward Moksha through several lifetimes.
