Buddhists believe in a succession of births and deaths that takes us between all the realms until we succeed ending 'our' existence. This existence is called "samsara".According to Buddhist teachings there are realms that comes under heavens (e.g. there are couple of heavens with different nature) and hells (same with the hells). According to Buddhism animals are also beings in another realm of suffering. Beings are born again because there is a mechanism by the name "paticcasamuppada" (dependent origination) operating within them, which gives rise to what needed for a being to be born again, based on what (called: "kamma") the being has done in the past.All life times are finite; the beings die when what needs for the life to sustain are no longer there. This nature is common for beings in all the realms..The problem Buddhism highlights in samsara is that beings tend to sin more than they do merits during their existence. It becomes severe because there are some realms (even that of the animals we can see) in which probability of its beings doing merits is quite low. This makes the probability a given being is in a world of suffering quite high (it is reflected by higher proportion of beings present in hells, animal worlds, etc. at a time)... Having to undergo this kind of suffering may be shown as the peril of samsaraic existence. The solution Buddhism proposes is stopping paticcasamuppada; a person to achieve this is an Arhat; and his/her samsaraic existence ends at the end of the life...Thanks again... <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/happy.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Happy    :)" data-shortname=":)" />Theruwan saranai!</blockquote>
