Spirit
Also Soul.
It is a common belief in cultures throughout the world that all living beings have a spirit or soul, a core of one's being that inhabits the physical body and persists after the body has died. Some believe the spirits of the deceased stay with us and watch over us while others believe they move on to an afterlife. Mediums claim to be able to see and communicate with spirits of the deceased while others attempt communication through ouija boards, seances and other metaphysical means.
There have been several studies in to the search for proof of the existence of the human soul however to date nothing conclusive has ever been found.
