spiritual power

Soul's inner strength

Spiritual power is the capacity to influence or transform through non-physical, often religious or mystical means.

It may refer to divine authority channeled through a person, the inner strength derived from faith or meditation, or supernatural abilities attributed to spirits, deities, or practitioners: The shaman was believed to have spiritual power over illness.

In religious contexts, spiritual power often contrasts with earthly or political power.
