Psychosynthesis suggests that "we can experience the will as having four stages. The first stage could be described as 'having no will, and might perhaps be linked with the hegemony of the lower unconscious. "The next stage of the will is understanding that 'will exists'. We might still feel that we cannot actually do it, but we know...it is possible". "Once we have developed our will, at least to some degree, we pass to the next stage which is called 'having a will, and thereafter "in psychosynthesis we call the fourth and final stage of the evolution of the will in the individual 'being will – which then "relates to the 'I' or self...draws energy from the transpersonal self".
