Guest guest Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 are vaisnavas dualists or monotheists? God in His form as Radha Krsna are 1 in 2 forms, arent that dualism? please explain Dualism means the devotee can never merge with God. God and he are in a permanent guru-disciple relationship. Dualists can be monotheists, since there is only one God. They are not MONISTS, which means that devotees can merge with God, and become part of God. The idea that God is the source of everything, and we lose our individuality or identity when we merge with God. The idea is there is only ONE entity in this entire universe, just taking different forms and their identities are illusory and nothing more.
