After a person dies, their soul is reborn into a new body. This cycle of birth, death, and rebirth is known as samsara. In the Garuda Purana, a conversation between Vishnu and Garuda, it is believed the nature of one's next birth is determined by one's actions in their previous life. The text describes different types of karma, their consequences, and the methods of attaining liberation from the cycle of samsara. The work divides karma into three categories: good, bad, and mixed. Good karma is accumulated by performing virtuous deeds, such as charity, kindness, and devotion to God or bhakti.

The book also describes various methods of attaining liberation. The most important method is devotion, which is believed to purify one's karma and lead to liberation. Other methods include performing good deeds, practicing yoga and meditation, and studying the Vedas The Garuda Purana is a valuable source of information on reincarnation and karma.
