The terms reincarnation and karma are strongly connected in Hindu belief. In this religion, the life following this death, is one that deals with karma. If a person is good in this life, their next life will be far more rewarding. If they are not good in this life, they may come back as a lower life form instead. To have good Karmic energy in rebirth, a person must live according to what is known as Dharma or doing what is right.
