About spirits¶
I suggest the following definitions.
- spirit¶
An idea that exists and grows in more than one human brain. Every shared idea can be considered a spirit.
- inspiration¶
A thought about a concrete situation, an answer to a question, perceived by a human as coming from outside of his brain.
- divine inspiration¶
An inspiration coming from God and perceived as such by that human. Some texts say that the Word of God came to an individual human.
An idea that is formulated as a text and can be shared by several humans. Religious or political schools are examples of shared ideas. Corporations (“legal persons”) are a legally binding formulation of a shared idea.
