Deleuze introduces existence as a need in the ontology. While respecting the material world, he does not see material existence as explaining being because it is the same ground for all beings. In his dual concepts, he contrasts what is permissible with the material world and believes in a two-way relationship between them. In Deleuze's philosophy, the concept of difference and events is the main example of this relationship. It was not enough to consider an ontological principle to understand events, so this is how Deleuze relates to being. Events, as a process or becoming, move from the past to the future. Deleuze emphasizes the coherence of the universe and considers figuration to be the result of the material world, although it is not the virtual explanation of the material world.
All in all, Deleuze's ontology presents virtual materialism with limited existence so that each individual is unique among human beings, and it is this monopoly in terms of becoming that takes shape. Beings are merely qualitative, emotional and singular. Being is a voluntary life that is difficult to maintain because the will always and, in any case, voluntarily gives way to the involuntary. It is a part of nature that leads to the vitality of life, and perhaps it is the nature of existence, but it is immersed in becoming and happening to find the true meaning of life and being alive.
