Explanation:

Detailed explanation-2: -In conclusion, Buddhism regards rebirth as a flow of life from one to the other, while Hinduism views it as an actual soul changing the bodies it inhabits.

Detailed explanation-3: -Karma is attached to the idea of reincarnation. There is an ongoing cycle of birth and death, conditioned by karma, linking an individual to past and future existences (Kolenda 1964; Wadia 1965). In reincarnation, the spirit or soul survives death and is reborn into a new body, human or nonhuman.
