In Buddhism , Samsara or The Wheel of Life is the six spheres of existence that all are trapped in. These six are: beings in hell , hungry ghosts, animals, asuras , humans and devas.

The American philosopher William James says that, "whenever two people meet , there are really 6 people present. There is each man as he sees himself, each man as the other person sees him and each man as he really is ".
