→Imperial Theories
The concept of a Hive Mind is so utterly alien and terrifying to a human mind that the [[Imperium]] searches vainly for the higher beings they suppose control the hive fleets, and though such mighty creatures exist they no more control the hive mind than single brain cells control a human's body. It is the sum of the hive mind which motivates it, not its constituent parts.{{Cite This}}
Some [[Magos|Technomagi]] of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]] think that the Hive Mind might just be the psychic network that links the Tyranid race and permits them to access the collective knowledge of the location and disposition of all other Tyranid creatures. Others think that it is in fact an incredibly powerful psychic monster using the Tyranids as puppets, while others think that it might be one of the [[Old Ones]].{{Cite This}}
