'INNATE is existing in, belonging to, or determined by factors present in an individual from birth : native, inborn.'
Imo opinion some 'Desires' are encoded in our DNA and others are personal wants/wishes/longings etc:.....
Buddha taught about various 'Desires' the wholesome and unwholesome and the 'Desire' to rid oneself of all 'Desires'. Without desire we wouldn't be able to survive, so they serve the purpose until we reach the 'Other Shore' and they fall away naturally.
