A being is a conscious or sentient entity or any living thing. The definition of being may include at least the following: animals (including humans, although there is debate over the extent to which humans are correctly spiritually, density or otherwise considered animals rather than a kind of higher being), non-human intelligent beings including alleged gods, demons, aliens, cryptids, non-terrestrial animals, social memory complexes, God or Source, and probably archons and demiurges. It may also include egregores, possibly also entities such as those described in the Philip experiment, and potentially all living entities, including plants, fungi, bacteria, and other forms of life.
