Yeah, I heard that Buddhism doesn't believe in the soul either. Yet, they do believe in the afterlife, so what do they believe exists within the person (or creature), if not a soul?

The answer to your question is very complex. But a very good question in itself. I am not very learned in Buddhism and may misrepresent their position.

But I will still try my best to answer your question, Splash. Just give me 3 or 4 days time. In the meanwhile, I invite The Lost One to give her views if she feels like doing so on your question.

Not sure I have much to say on the matter. I read an article about this some time ago. The conclusion was it is impossible to know from outside Nirvana what might be possible within it. Not a very satisfying answer!
