  • The soul (atman) is immortal (cannot die) and is a part of god (Brahman)
  • The soul is reincarnated (samsara)
  • Hindus also believe the eventually the soul or "atman" may be united with God (Brahman) and be released from the cycle of rebirth. This is known as "moksha"
  • How well a person has lived their life will affect their next reincarnation. This is the law of karma
