A Substance, is some element of existence which the intellect can necessary come to know of in its totality.
By Singularity, I mean the infinitely generalized state of being, from which infinite forms or particular versions may spring.
By Form, I mean the constituent elements of singularity, the sum totality of which result in its realisation.
Conception is the act of abstracting a form to singularity through becoming aware of the higher singularity.
Perception is the act of becoming aware of a form with respect to its singularity. This does not require preconception of the singularity but simply some knowledge of its existence, i.e. a 'perception' (an incomplete conception).
The Will surmises the ontological necessity of form towards the existence of singularity. Singularity is ontologically prior to form, to speak of a singularity is to necessitate the totality of its forms, and so we introduce a metaphysical construct in saying that singularity has will towards its forms.
The dual notion of the Will is Striving. As forms exist only by virtue of their parent singularity we can say that forms strive towards their singularity, that the existence of the form in turn necessitates its higher singularity.
