Description |
Abstract |
Although absent from the earliest strands of Hindu scriptures, the idea of reincarnation (or rebirth) is ancient and widely held in South Asia, and also resonates with notions held elsewhere about retribution in a future life. The chapter discusses stories about reincarnation from the Bhagavad Gītā and the Upaniṣads. |
