Spirit

These beings have a legion of names drawn from the demonology of many cultures: elementals, familiars, incubi, succubi, bud-wills, demons, atavisms, wraiths, spirits, and so on."Pete Caroll (Peter J. Caroll)Pure Spirit is Pure Mind, and as many of us know Pure Mind is without empathy, so force is applied without concern over "collateral damage". Hence, discernment is one of the reasons our Spirit operates through a human body, for to learn empathy for the living on must be alive. This is witnessed as your Spirit applies force ( "will to force"-Emotion), it can feel sensually how that force impacts a living organismelitarotstrickingly.comSpirit, which is the common substance of universals, likewise exists according to states. Spirit per se, that is, in its own nature, is unknowable. But from spirit proceed things spiritual according to a descending order. Intellect is an intangible pertaining to the order of spirit, yet to a degree it has formal dimension and proportion and is subject to definition. Energy, or force as it was known in old times, is likewise an extension of spirit, but this extension is subject to greater limitations than intellect because it is definable. All definitions define natures according to their limitations. Axiomatically, definition is limitation.Apparently Manly P. Hall in his own book, "The Wisdom of the Knowing Ones: Gnosticism: The Key to Esoteric Christianity". 
‘Spirit’ is what inspires man; i.e. it is that which a man is inspired to do by— ‘We were moved by the spirit of Freedom—’i.e. he is inspired by a spirit, we might almost say spirited, such as spirited away. 
In Evola's racial-spiritual typology it refers to the type of worldview one has, the relation being that one is inspired to do different things, and to do thins differently, naturally by different worldviews.
