- Sui generis, that is, the combination of identity and difference in a real is not a numerical summation but a vital synthesis of the two elements. Each such synthesis is also said to be unique, in the sense that when the real is analysed the two elements of identity and difference exhaust between themselves the entire content of the real, although they display a distinctive structural and functional individuality not found in the individual constituent elements in their combination. This is illustrated by the oft quoted instance of Narsimha (the man-lion): As the name itself suggests, Narsimha is a combination of Nara (man) and Simha (lion). Nevertheless, it indicates a being which is somehow different in its combination, from the parts severally entering into its making, although it is imipossible to get such a being outside the parts in question.
