    Agreed, but there are lots of similarities nonetheless.

"I-ness"-es) are different. To put it simply, one transmigrates and goes through the same process of birth, sickness, age, and death over and over, but it isn't quite as Hellish as Nietzsche's concept of eternal recurrence.

    If you are reborn it dosent mean that you will never meet a person in your previuos life but the chances for that would probably be low. But you would probably like the new persons in your new life as much as the persons in your previous life.

    There is no transmigration of a soul in Buddhism.

    I don´t think there is something like a soul at all.

    If you don't believe in God this is the best way to explain our universe. Not like there are good cosmological models without beginning.

    Zoroaster lived before Judaism took it's place.

    Isn't the universe in Buddhism eternal? In Hinduism it goes for a very long period of cycles but is not eternal. The only way to get back to static universe is to get there with eternal cycles. But that would be cheating i assume.

    In Kabbalah, Jewish mysticism, reincarnation is linked to other universes. Not sure about Hindu schools. It would make sense if they believed so.
