The ultimate result of several cycles of reincarnation is to be reunited with this force. In Hinduism, the reunification of the soul with Brahman is called moksha. Buddhists have the same goal, but it is given the name nirvana. In both Hinduism and Buddhism, the ultimate goal is to end the cycle of reincarnation.
