Life and death - Unit 1
The world
Hinduism teaches that accepting responsibility for the natural world brings good karmic consequences for everyone. Many Hindus believe that the Big Bang is a scientific theory that sits alongside their religious beliefs and offers no challenge to their faith.
Death, afterlife, Brahman and atman
Many Hindus believe that humans are in a cycle of death and rebirth called 'samsara'. Hinduism teaches that through enlightened knowledge the cycle can be broken.
Non-religious views
Religion and science ask different kinds of questions about the universe and its origins. Humanists and atheists do not have any religious beliefs, and embrace scientific discoveries instead.
