Samsara in Buddhism is the cycle of suffering and rebirth that we all experience. The cycle, at its most basic, consists of birth, living, death, and new life. The word is Sanskrit, and roughly means “wandering through.”

The Buddha taught that we wander through our cycles of life and death with ignorance. We don’t see this cycle clearly, and just continue to be subjected the living, suffering and rebirth brought about by samsara.
