Can Plotinus' philosophy be seen as dualistic?
Yes, considering his work on the One's duality
No, it was monistic
Yes, in all aspects
No, it was purely materialistic
Answer
Plotinus' philosophy is dualistic in that he believed the One, or the ultimate reality, was both transcendent and immanent. This means that the One was both beyond the world of appearances and yet also present within it. This duality is evident in Plotinus' work on the One's relation to the Nous, or the realm of ideas.
