I have never heard the phrase "being" verbs used in English, but there is one important verb, "to be' . It is only one verb but it has all the tenses and is irregular:

Present tense

I am we are

thou art( archaic) you are

he, she, it is they are.

Past tense

I was we were

thou wast (archaic) you were

he. she, it was they were

Future:

I shall be we shall be

thou wilt be (archaic) you will be

he, she , it will be they will be

The past participle is been , but other than that the conjugation is regular,

eg. I have been, I had been. I shall have been,etc.

There is no direct object. There are two types of verbs: action verbs and being verbs.
