Universality (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠distinct and free from the determinate properties it has. It is pure relating of self to self.

Universality (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠nothing else than what here and now have proved themselves to be a simple togetherness of a plurality which are in their determinateness simple universals themselves.

Universality (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠simply the idea that this salt is a simple 'here' and that its presence in properties such as white, tart and cubical all interpenetrate. None has a different 'here' from the others, but each is everywhere, in the same 'here' in which the others are.

Universality (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠better understood as different universalities that not affect each other. For example, whiteness does not affect the cubical shape of the sugar cube. Each leaves the others alone, and is connected with them only by the indifferent 'also' : This 'also' is thus the pure universal itself, or the medium, the 'thinghood', which holds them together in this way.

Universality (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠altogether something other than a great number.
