The drives, that is the distinguished ministers of will, are formed out of the coming together of elemental intentions, but are they truly unified? They seem so because they belong to a self which has unity in its essence, but otherwise they do not require it. In other terms, although the motive forces of experience can be understood as the various drives, they are never directly experienced. All desire is unconscious and the identification of self with desire is all on the side of self, while desires are legion, their voice always a chorus. From a dualist perspective will is the most subtle form of matter, of prakriti, its inherent draw towards kinds of order. So, will can exhibit itself as the solution to the combination problem of panpsychism, this says nothing about the combination of consciousness. The fascination of consciousness by will, the misplacing of self, is the great error.
