The Vedic religion does not state that after you die, you will be off the wheel of rebirth. In fact, it believes that death is just another stage in a process known as <em>samsara</em>. Samsara is a Sanskrit word that relates to a cycle of life. The cycle of reincarnation is tied to the theory of <em>karma</em>, and liberation from it can only be achieved through <em>moksha</em>, which is a concept similar to self-realization. This is generally considered the objective of Indian religious traditions.
A soul can only escape the wheel of birth through self-realization.
In order to achieve liberation, one has to meditate, sacrifice, surrender, and live
according to God’s will. Only souls filled with purity(sattva) are deserving to
escape the cycle of birth.
