Hi, Robs,

Could you please provide us with some sentences in which you're not sure? You are asking rather a vast question.

Being is used to denote the current state of someone.

For example:

He, being rich, can afford to maintain luxury cars.

Hi, Ruslana and Neeraj. Nice to listen to you.

well, you are true in your standpoint. 'Being' is used in many ways and in many forms. But soemtimes it tends to become a tedious task to track down on every form of 'being'. Have an insight into the following and say if I were wrong anywhere

'Being in the profession of writing, he knows how to satisfy readers with words'
'I, being an obident disciple of him can't listen his demerits'
I, being his obident disciple can't listen his demerits'
Being the best place of the world, he loves his home'
His home, being the best place of the world is always loved by him.

......many other explanations are also available. soemtimes being is used at the very onset and sometimes it is in the middle of any line.

Am I running on the track or getting out of it? Help this 'being'.
