Rebirth and Reincarnation

See also: Reincarnation

The reincarnation indicates the migration of a heart of life in life. In the context of the Hindouisme, it Oneself ( Atman ), incarnates itself in several bodies.
Buddhism as for him, sign impermanency: any conditioned phenomenon is transitory ( Anicca ). This leads it to refuse the concept of Atman - each thing is without oneself, ( Anatta ). The rebirth is presented to it in the form of a process difficult to hear and several interpretations divergent.

Hinayana lesson

The most complete teaching as for the origin of the suffering, the origin of Dukkha , is the conditioned Coproduction, which raises the question of a rebirth. But the Three characteristics raise the question then of what reappears, question which accepted many answers.

The " bond of renaissance" or meeting

to see Viññāṇa-kicca (functions of the conscience).

According to the analytical study theravadin proposed in broad volume that is the Paṭṭhāna , with the death occurs a meeting ( paṭisandi ), being able to be called “bond of rebirth”. It is about a conscience which has as an aim the last Karma , which results from it, and which is prolonged thereafter while running " subconscient" - a continuation of " consciences" carrying the same characteristics -, until a perception " heurte" this current.

According to this analysis, the conscience at the time of the death thus conditions completely the birth. This sight has at least the merit to propose a clear answer to the question of what reappears: among the constituent of what is perceived like a person, it is the frame of mind at the time of dead which conditions the birth completely.

Pudgalavādin school

For the two schools known as Pudgalavādin, or “personalists”, the individual is not similar to traditional the five aggrégats of attachment, but it is not either different; it is neither permanent nor transitory ( Anitya ). This individual passes from one life to the other, but at the time of dead it passes by a “intermediate state”.

Mahāyāna lesson

Vacuity

According to Buddhism Madhyamika , the process to become, conditioned Coproduction, is certainly the truth, or reality, ultimate: but this reality, included/understood by others like " beyond the apparences" , is, according to this vision, only Vacuité.

Nothing is never produced, and the phenomena are only illusion:
" It is conditioned production
That one says that it is vacuity "
(Nāgārjuna, transl. G.Bugault)

Rebirth and metaphysics

If the various schools of Buddhism proposed interpretations different from the rebirth, guarantor in a way varied with questions like " if there is no heart, then what reappears? " , this questioning, thus formulated, is in extreme cases of Buddhist philosophy.

Buddhist philosophy wants to be indeed practical: any teaching is only one means, and the words could not cover ultimate reality. To put the bad questions inevitably involves with embourber in an insoluble imbroglio, rather than to practice the driving way with the release.

Thus, the Brahmājālasūtta , will sûtra fishing net, proposes T it a list of sights, opinions in which them holders are retained like fish in the net of the fisherman…
