No matter is also individual, but it is individual concepts, which are universals. Just like there are many individual tables and there is one universal concept ‘table’. That ‘table’ is an individual, different from ‘chair’. But it is not the individual chairs and tables. Universal doesn’t mean there is one thing. It’s a technical term derived from Plato’s philosophy of ideas which are universals.
