Does cycle of rebirth go on forever? - Escape.

COUNTLESS OTHERS: Enoch, Nelson Mandela (whose reappearance led to the coining of the term "Mandela Effect" for a very real phenomenon the powers that be want us not to believe in), "Bábá" (aka Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar, the founder of Ananda Marga), all of us who, though we seem to die, are in fact endlessly rearising an instant later in the process of rebirth (patisandhi, rearising, relinking, reappearance) known as the Wheel of Death and Rebirth (samsara), which has touched ALL beings, even Maha Brahma the imagined "Creator God" of this universe, the gods (other brahmas, which fall into the category of other "shining ones" called devas), hellions (narakas in niraya the "downward path," "downfall," roughly speaking the purgatories since no world is eternal, not even the worst and lowest "hell," which is called Avici), animals (tiracchāna), ghosts (petas), dragons/reptilians (nagas), and other strange creatures like trolls (kumbhandas), ogres (rakshasas), nature spirits or monsters/protectors (yakshas), and avians (garudas/suparnas), fairies (apsaras), dryads (salabhanjikas), angels (lower devas, particularly the gandhabbas/gandharvas), demons (asuras), and devils (maras)...
