總體與個別之並稱。即一般與特殊之分。總攝全體,稱為總;特別指部分,稱為別。據大智度論卷三十一載,諸法有二性,一為總性,一為別性。總性如無常、苦、空、無我、無生、無滅、無來、無去、無入、無出等。別性如心之識性、火之熱性、水之濕性等;又如人好作諸惡,稱為惡性;好作善事,則稱善性。推而廣之,諸法皆有總相與別相之分,如馬為總相,白馬則為別相。就觀想、觀念等言,有總觀與別觀相對。又各宗派總以諸經為所依,稱為總依;別以一經代表該宗,則稱別依。其他尚有各種總別相對之法,如總相念處、別相念處,總報、別報,總我、別我,總相觀,別相觀,總願、別願,總安心、別安心,總迴向、別迴向,總論、別論,總釋、別釋等。〔大智度論卷二十三、中邊分別論卷上、俱舍論卷二十五、卷二十六、成唯識論卷一、卷十、大乘義章卷九〕
