What is the equivalent of ningen for deitys and demons?


I know ningen is a word (at least in entertainment media) that is used to
refer to something as human or simply mundane. In this context, what are the
words used to describe something as "godly"/"heavenly" or "ungodly"/"hellish"?




人間 (ningen) means _human_ , and this word on its own does **not** mean
_mundane_. But 人間界 (ningen-kai, lit. "human world") is commonly used in
various fictional works to refer to the human world as opposed to heavenly or
hellish worlds. See: [What would be the most apt word in kanji, for "Animal
world"?](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/q/29389/5010)

Anyway, in many fictional works, it's very common to categorize
items/characters/magics/etc into holy vs evil, godly vs daemonic, light vs
dark etc. 人間界 is often described as an opposing idea of 天界
("heavenly/celestial world") and/or 魔界 ("evil/monster world").

Here are some other words typically used in such situations:

  * 神: "god(ly)" vs 悪魔, 魔: "demon(ic), monster(ous)"
  * 光: "light" vs 闇: "darkness"
  * 聖: "holy, sacred" vs 邪: "evil"
  * 神聖: "holy, sacred" vs 邪悪: "evil"
  * 天国: "heaven" vs 地獄: "hell"
  * 祝福: "blessing" vs 呪い: "curse"
