soul goes directly to its next body (could be human or animal)
What you become in your next life is dependant on your karma
How you feel (content or upset) at your death is important

The Soul The “soul” is called jiva
=means a conscious, living being
The body is just a “container” for our souls
When you die, your jiva, is reborn into another life until it achieves liberation
