I voted 'yes'. Hindus believe that we are all souls wearing a physical body and experiencing material nature for a limited time and for a particular purpose.

If I have to pick either agree or disagree I will disagree. We are obviously human beings and we are obviously physical beings. I do not think we have an way of knowing if there is any spiritual aspect to life or not, but I certainly know that I am at least partially a physical, human being.

I believe we are creatures born to become spirit.
This life is no more than the process that forms the potential.
