There is a concept of reincarnation in Hinduism and also the concept of swarg(paradise) and narak(hell). How can two things exist simoultaneously?

There need be no confusion in the matter.According to Hinduism, the atma is reborn again only after it passes through hell or heaven according to his Karma in the previous birth.the soul or atma is cleansed and then sent back for rebirth.In fact when the quantum of misdeeds very high the atma has to go through a life of strife even after passing through hell in his after life when reborn.
