Experience is feeling thinking and willing, but all of these can be reduced to willing if we take being acted upon as also a phase of will - you only know yourself as receiving through your ability to give. So feeling is will, while thinking is either in anticipation of an act or reflection on an act, you plan, you set out terms etc. Experience cannot be reduced to perception and analogies of perception in this way, the engagement, the embodiment is what is missed. Hence there is no problem of reality since the real is always the counterpart of will - this is probably another way of describing pragmatism. The experiencing is nothing like contemplation either, it is immanent to experience and not transcendent, although entirely separate and disinterested. This may be what is meant by the phrase 'pure act' - the essence of action once time has been entirely abstracted. Pure act and will, this is why they fit together so closely, why no act or angle of approach can separate them.
