I am not familiar with Hinduism, but in Buddhism the ultimate goal is nirvana, which is not non-existence. I'm aware that reincarnation is viewed as undesirable in Buddhism, but it still supports the notion of life after death regardless of whether they desire it or not; hence, why I mentioned it.

It sounds like you ought to study up yourself.

You mentioned reincarnation as if it was some preferable reward to simple death. In that you were wrong. Nothing of what you said here differs from what I said.
