Hinduism teaches that even if the bodies die, atman ("AHTmahn") or the individual
soul, doesn't have a beginning or end. When a death occurs they may pass into
another reincarnation, which depends on the karma, or consequences of one's
actions, reaped from the life that just ended, and as the previous lives before that.
If though many lifetimes, the deceased has realized the true nature of reality, the
individuality of the soul will be lost upon death and it will become on with Braman,
the One, All-Encompassing soul.
