anima mundi

Yes, the mind which is the anima mundi, the principle, of all things.

The unity expounded at first is simply an anima mundi, a living universe, but not intelligent.

I may mean a mere anima mundi; or an initial principle which once was in action and now is not; or collective humanity.

It is the old anima mundi of the Platonic physics, a vital soul of the world, distinct from but created by the Supreme God.

It may be said that Galen expresses, in these passages, the Platonic dogma of an anima mundi.
