Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism and other religions believe in dharma, which is basically tasks that one needs to complete in their lifetime. Do you believe that the form of life something or someone takes (such as a fish or dog) represents how they acted in their past lives? For example, do you think that a rapist years back could be the roach in your kitchen to this day? Or on a positive outlook, a kind and generous poor man could reborn into the prince of Thailand. What do you think?

Apparently, "karma" and "reincarnation" are two very misunderstood concepts here.
Karma and reincarnation are contingent. You cannot have one without the other. |

You cannot have one without the other. not quite. karma is real. that's why people help other people rather than being selfish and greedy. you can be kind and giving and get what you deserve in return without turning into a roach or any of that pishposh. you get back what you give. |
