The top-level categorization of `Desire` is either for `Self-Knowledge` on the `Intelligent` side or `Sex` on the `Nature` side[^2].
Within the `Nature` side, `Sex` has four primary `Desire` branches: `Food`, `Possessions` (or wealth), `Fame`, and `Power`[^3].
These four primary `Desires` form a second level of categorization and each have innumerable offshoots in their category.
Within `Nature`, `Sex` has four primary `Desire` branches: `Food`, `Possessions` (or wealth), `Fame`, and `Power`[^3]. These four primary `Desires` form a second level of categorization and each have innumerable offshoots in their category.
By this categorization, every possible `Desire` in `Nature` can be linked in a hieararchy.

!!! info Ascension
The path towards spiritual ascension and exiting `Nature` requires mastering every `Desire` in this hierarchy and learning what to do and what not to do for each one. Through proper thinking, the `Desires` can be mastered without necessarily experiencing them as destiny. Enjoy all things *knowingly*.

!!! tip The Tree of Knowledge?
If every `Thought` holds knowledge of itself (including `What To Do` and `What Not To Do` for itself) and `Nature` holds every `Thought`, then all knowledge in `Nature` can be accessed via `Thoughts`. `Nature` can be thought of as a database of knowledge and the abstract tree above its index. `The Desire Hierarchy` thus might also be `The Tree of Knowledge`.
