Ancient Hindu belief states that our soul, or Atman, will come back in some form following our deaths.
The form our souls take is dependent upon acts during our lives. Some people who led beautiful lives may come back as butterflies.
Other wicked people may come back as cockroaches.
I must have been just awful. I was reincarnated as plastic.
