As far as Buddhist philosophy is concerned it would depend on your concept of 'you'. If you mean the collection of thoughts, complexes and personality traits that you have built up during your many lives, well that is finite and will therfore cease to be. For a better understanding it would be best to read something like 'The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying' by Sogyal Rinpoche.

How are Buddhist teachings different from Hindu teachings .?

Hindus believe that fulfilling one's duty results in a life lived purely enough to end the production of karma and end the cycle of rebirth; the Buddhist view of karma is that it is not one's actions as applied to duty, but one's moral intentions that matter. There is some debate about Buddhists' views of rebirth: many believe the Buddha taught Hindu rebirth and the possibility of ending that cycle; others believe the Buddha used rebirth as a metaphor, but that he taught that we need to get past holding the Hindu view in order to become truly free in this lifetime (rather than in some future lifetime).


What is the cycle of birth death and rebirth?

The cycle of rebirth is referred to as samsara like the constant ebb and flow of the oceanic tide. ^ the answer above is too vague. Samsara is the cycle of life, death, and rebirth/reincarnation, and it is a Hindu concept as well as a Buddhist concept. Hindus and Buddhists believe that the soul wears the physical body like an article of clothing, and that there is no such thing as death. When the physical body "dies," the spirit leaves and moves onto the next physical body, reborn, dies, is reborn, and so on. It is an endless cycle, and the only way to escape the cycle (mokhsha) is to achieve nirvana (according to Buddhist philosophy), which is the absence of suffering. To do so, one must purge oneself of desires, for desires are what spawn suffering, and when one achieves this, the cycle is broken.
