cycle of birth and death (reincarnation) (lun-hui): Until living beings obtain enlightenment or liberation they must continue revolving in the cycle of reincarnation or rebirth whereby they suffer and die. There is no guarantee that one will be reborn as a human or heavenly being. Rebirth depends on your karma and can occur in any of the six realms of existence.
