What Berkeley sees as “a manifest repugnancy” is the concept of the material object. His philosophy is called a metaphysical idealism as he believes that that which perceives aka the mind exists and to him nothing exists independent of the mind. This is in contradiction with for example Descartes and Locke who state that material world is real and exist independent of perception.
