3.After death, a person's soul lives on and returns to a new body.--- I think that is the religious idea that a follower of Hinduism would most likely believe.
One of the Core Beliefs of Hindus is that Individual soul is immortal. That once the body dies, the soul is reborn and its physical being will depend on how one lived his/her previous life. They belief in "karma". Thus, Hindus strive to live a good life so that when the cycle of death and rebirth happens, they will continue to live a good life until such time that the soul has reached its ultimate goal of living and will finally rest with the Brahman.
