द्वैत meaning in English

dualism; the philosophical doctrine of the existence of two distinct realities, typically spirit and matter.

Detailed Explanation

In Indian philosophy, particularly within Vedanta, Dvaita refers to the school of thought founded by Madhvacharya which posits an eternal distinction between the individual soul (jiva) and the supreme deity (Vishnu/Brahman). More broadly, it denotes the state of being divided into two parts or the concept of duality in metaphysics and ethics.

📝 Cultural Context

Dvaita is a specific technical term in Hindu philosophy, contrasting with Advaita (non-dualism). In general usage, it can also refer to any form of duality or dualistic thinking.
