Used mostly in discussions about philosophy, especially when talking about how the mind and body connect.

Philosophical Term

While it's common in philosophy, 'dualist' appears in other areas, like religion and ethics, where things are seen as two opposing forces.

Not Just Philosophy

Don't oversimplify by confusing it with 'double-sided'. 'Dualist' refers to a structured belief system or theory, not just two aspects.

When 'dualist' is used as an adjective, it describes a belief, philosophy, or view that emphasizes 'dualism'.

The meaning of 'dualist' can change depending on the context; it could refer to spirituality, psychology, or moral perspectives.

A dualist viewpoint may not be openly stated but can be inferred from how someone explains life, death, or consciousness.
