Buddhism has its cosmology like any religion and you can see the various realms--hungry ghost, hell, demi god, etc.--depicted on the walls of any Buddhist temple in any buddhist country anywhere in the world. However in the west in particular youve had people take what they like from Buddhism and use it as a general system for controlling the mind and living a good life--without any reference to ideas about reincarnation the survival of the true essence or buddha nature, etc. Its a bit like whats happened to yoga or hatha yoga in the west where its spiritual content as a.preparation for Raja yoga is forgotten and it is mostly used as a feel good system for the body--not too unlike aerobics.
