According to Rig Veda, human beings are tri-ani-pada

According to Rig Veda, human beings are tri-ani-pada i.e. three bodies in One. On the natural death or suicide only material body dies. Their subtle spiritual body containing the Jeev (Spirit) and subtlest of the subtle i.e. causal body containig Atma (soul) do not die. The energy principle Jeev (spirit) merges with the Supreme Spirit and sum total of energy continues to remain constant in the Universe.
The causal body containing knowledge principle gets rebirth after on the the 13th day or later depending on the quantam of sattvic, rajasic and tamasic gunas encircling the soul. 12 days journey of the soul to remove the effect of Gunas (karma effect decides the re-birth) is explained in great details in Rig Veda.
