In Buddhism and Hinduism, the endless cycle of birth, death and rebirth which must pass all conditioned things. Both the beginning and the end of samsara are not detectable. Karma determines the details of travel that makes a person by this cycle. In Hinduism, moksha means liberation from samsara. In Buddhism, it transcends samsara when nirvana is reached. This cycle affects from the smallest insect ( at times, mineral and vegetable kingdoms are included ) to Brahma, the Supreme God.
