Saṃsāra, “wandering on”, is the beginningless cycle of lives through which beings pass according to their actions. Hindu, Buddhist and Jain traditions share the idea, though they understand what is reborn differently. The goal of the religious life is release from saṃsāra: mokṣa, nirvāṇa or kevala.
