Animal Soul is a term that in Theosophy is usually applied to the fourth principle (kāma) and sometimes to the the fifth principle (manas) especially when in association to the fourth (forming kāma-manas or the lower mind).
In December 1881 H. P. Blavatsky wrote about the "animal soul" as being the "kama-rupa" of a living man,[1] while in January 1882, T. Subba Row speaks of it as the "physical intelligence."[2]
In 1883 A. P. Sinnett describes the presence of three "souls" in human beings as follows:[3]
4. Animal Soul. . . . . . Kama Rupa.
5. Human Soul. . . . . . Manas.
6. Spiritual Soul. . . . . Buddhi.
