Default Former Shinto Atheists and lawn owners?

The classical Indian Theodor is built on two related doctrines Samara and Karma. Samsars is the doctrine that each soul passes through a sequence of bodies....Karms, is the law of cause and effect.....hence future rebirth."

Would this make the bodies also a materialistic aspect that needs to be thrown off to in order to reach the final goal? Would this be a hindrance that needs to be left behind?

most of the atheists here do not believe in karma or rebirth, so no one is really interested in answering

Karma - if you forget to water your lawn it will die.

Samsars - the lawn is gone, plant some flowers in its place.

Perhaps you could hire a Shinto Atheist (whatever one of those might be) to do the job for you.
