I'm not an authority on Hegel, but according to Wikipedia--a site I avoid citing, but I'm doing so due to time constraints--he never used the actual term "Zeitgeist." However, in his writings, he did use the expression der Geist seiner Zeit, "the spirit of the time," as in his notion that no one can go past his own time, and the spirit of the time is his own spirit." in

He also apparently used the term Weltgeist, "world ghost," in his writings. For more information, surf over here.

Yes ZEITGEIST is not the same as “der Geist seiner Zeit”,

“
ZEITGEIST” is a philosophical term denoting the spirit in the world driving it, the

inexorable drive of the apparent conflicting push and pull of FREE Will and God`s Plan-

“Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of thy Faithful; and enkindle in them the fire of Thy love. Send forth Thy Spirit and they shall be created, and THOU SHALT RENEW THE FACE OF THE EARTH.
