Excerpt from Spiritual and Mental Concepts of the Maori Ghost. This denotes the soul after the death of its physical basis.

It would assuredly require prolonged training to disassociate the term spirit from man, and confine its use to what we term inanimate objects. The word spirit is certainly connected with an animal function - with words meaning breath, breathing, and to breathe - and it seems inadvisable to restrict its application to objects with which that function is not connected.
