| Comments: | It's really the せいれい that locks in sense 2, as that reading can only be 生霊, whereas 生霊 can be いきりょう and いきすだま too. |

| Comments: | "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul" The Holy Bible, KJV. This is the word used to translate "living soul" in the Meiji Version, although there it is read いけるもの. See https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Gikun_Usage_in_Meiji_Version_of_Japanese_Bible/生霊#cite_ref-Gen_2:7_1-0 |
