dislike
Из контекста не совсем понятно, о чем идет речь и как строится предложение, но я думаю здесь можно использовать слова "like" и "dislike", если речь идет о человеке и его желаниях.

Actually for both of these an -ing form would sound more natural -

...what appeals to it and what turns it off.
... what attracts it and what repels it.
... what turns it on and what does not.
Из синтаксиса предложения следует, что желание видит перед собой то, что его влечет и т. д. Звучит несколько странно, на мой взгляд, но, может, в Кабалле это нормально, я не знаю.
