Death and the end of days

Death is an alien concept to the Eastern religions, which are founded on the belief that nothing dies, in the senses that it ceases to exist. All life forms are animated by universal energy and energy cannot die. It can only be transformed.
Similarly, while the physical form of human may cease to function and disintergrate after death, the personality lives on in a non physical reality until it is reborn into a new body.
For this reason there is no final judgement, in the Eastern philosophies nor physical resurrection at the end of days ( hence the Hindu Custom of Cremation and the Tibetan tradition of feeding the deceased to animals instead of burying them). In its place there is a belief of a continual cycle of death and rebirth from which we are required to attain both insight and experience.
Both Hinduism and Buddhism are concerned solely with the spiritual evolution of the individual and not with the fate of humanity as a whole. This is the fundamental difference between the Eastern philosophies and the orthadox Western Religions, which place great emphasis on the will of God and the expunging of original sin-concepts that are alien to the east.
