Is it about your sin(s)?

“This is a tough one to ponder. In rebirth philosophy is not the deeds that define your next life but your attachment to them. Akin to being baptised so as to change your views towards these deeds forever in a symbolic event, you can alter your views or reactions so that these human mistakes don’t steer your afterlife (rebirth is like an afterlife). So your “sins” can shape it but are not absolute or definitive on the outcome.” - the dude.
