Dvaita

Dvaita is a philosophy from Hinduism that emphasizes a clear distinction between the individual soul (atman) and the supreme divine (Vishnu or God). It teaches that they are separate entities with their own identities, and that the soul depends on God for liberation and fulfillment. Unlike other philosophies that see all as one, Dvaita affirms your individuality and the reality of God's supreme position. This perspective encourages devotion and recognition of the difference between the divine and individual beings, promoting a relationship based on reverence and dependence.
