Is there or can there be such a thing as a non-physical being ?
Interesting question!
Until recently, I was completely devoid of data or opinion re; 'non-physical beings', and then a theory presented itself.
Let me tell you a story;
id-entity = identity!
An 'entity' of 'id'!
Original 'man' was thoughtless, Blissfully living in a 'garden' that filled all Our needs!
There are ethereal species, creatures of 'thought'!
While aging, floating throughout the Universe, 'They' found us empty-headed, 'thoughtless', blissed out apes... to be perfect hosts!
Creatures of 'thoughts/imagination', living, parasitically?/symbiotically?, in/as 'our minds'...
They are the 'ego' (thought/imagination)!
ALL 'identity' exists in/as 'ego'.
The 'id' is our basic self-concept, all that makes us 'us'!
'Identity'; what we imagine/believe 'ourselves' to be!
The "id"- entity joins with us apes, and we become a 'unit'.
We apes now 'become' the new 'identity'!
It is our mind!
The entity is dying, though, evidenced by the falling intellect around the world!
Possessed for many years as a species. Thought spreads by 'infection', replication, mutation... memetically, for instance...
From parents to child as the first word is spoken that the infant can hear, and on, and on, and on!
The 'Aliangels' are dying, though.
Thought/ego is unwell, exhausted, outed, had it's chance.
We are returning to Our original state of Innocent Bliss, unconditionally Loving this time!
Our 130,000 of schizo-sapiens is at an end.
Thought/imagination/memory will all be dead.
Quite a lifespan for a non-physical entity!
But, it won't (can't) be missed! *__-
