Transmigration, often referred to as reincarnation, is the belief that the soul or spirit of a person is reborn into a new body after death. This concept is found in various religions and philosophies, including Hinduism, Buddhism, and Plato's teachings. It suggests that life is a cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, influenced by one's actions or karma in previous lives.
The idea of transmigration implies that individuals can learn and grow through multiple lifetimes. Each new existence offers opportunities for spiritual development and the chance to resolve past experiences. This cycle continues until the soul reaches a state of enlightenment or liberation, often referred to as moksha in Hinduism or nirvana in Buddhism.
