: In the Indian philosophical tradition the doctrine of ‘Karma and Rebirth’ is considered as one of the cardinal concept. The doctrine of karma is common to almost all traditional as well as contemporary Indian philosophical and religious systems. It is accepted as the dominating force throughout the all ages. The role of karma has been significant for Indian thought and its influence on mind is profound and for reaching that it has been regarded as the back-bone of Indian philosophy. The term ‘Karma’ is derived from Sanskrit ‘Kr’ which means ‘to do’. Thus etymologically karma means deed, work or action and designated any kind of work. And the term ‘Rebirth’ means ‘punarjanma’, referring to a “succession of births”. In Indian thought karma means the chain that binds man to the wheel of birth and rebirth. Therefore rebirth is the corollary of individual actions. Thus karma and rebirth are interrelated to each other. One is meaningless without the other.
