English term or phrase: entity
Hello everyone,

The Kryon energy comes to you in love and honesty, and brings specialist information and knowledge from all corners of the universe to assist you in the ascension process. There is not one **entity** or specialist group of knowledge and understanding that cannot be contacted through Kryon

Does "entity" mean something like "body of knowledge" here?

Thank you.

probably


Explanation:
There are 2 things it could be: 'entity' alone meaning 'body' or 'entity of knowledge', meaning 'body of knowledge' as you suggest. In either case, it doesn't make much sense to me, but I think your interpretation is fine. I guess 'body of knowledge' could be general and 'specialist group' be more exclusive.

agree  David Knowles: I read it as some kind of being - probably a spiritual being, not necessarily an individual, but possibly some group spirit.
