I fear we'll have to look outside of English to find the "right word"
(though I do like "Ghostly bits"), because we've pretty much used up the
single-word English terms for it in the rules. Try "Atman" or "Prana" from
Hindus, "Ba" from the Egyptians, "Anima" from the Romans, "Ruach" or
"Neschamah" from the Hebrew, "Psyche" from the Greeks...  Or be resigned to
use more than one word to describe it.

And let's all be nice  - no-one needs to be insulting - or to find an insult
where none was intended. Don't make me tattle to the moderator!
