  • 精神 is both the religious and non-religious Spirit.

  • They say せい Shintoism しん is all about Spirits.

  • The latest sensation senせいしん (fad) really awoke his Spirit.

  • Calm your Spirit. せいしん sounds calming because it sounds like satiate せいし(ん). If you're full (satiated), then your Spirit will feel at ease.
