Afterlife in Buddhism and Hinduism Where does the ideology of afterlife in Buddhism and Hinduism come from and why are they different?
Hinduism teaches about a permanent soul that goes from life to life until it reunites with the universal soul called the Mahabrahma.
Buddhism says there's no soul going even from this moment to the next, let alone from life to life. Both mind and body are processes of causes and effects. There's nothing permanent within you that can qualify as a soul. Read about Paticca Samuppada. Buddhism also rejects the belief of a universal soul.
