Achintya Bheda Abheda

Achintya Bheda Abheda (अचिन्त्यभेदाभेद, IAST : acintya bhedābheda, Sanskrit "achintya" = "incomprehensible", "bheda" = "difference" and "abheda" = "unity" ) is a school of Vedanta within Hindu philosophy, which is incomprehensible of unity and diversity in relation to creation and creator ( Krishna , Svayam Bhagavan ) and also that between God and his divine power within the religious tradition of Gaudiya Vaishnava .

It is recorded that this philosophy was taught by the founder of the movement, Chaitanya (1486–1534). He delimited the Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition from the other philosophical stream of the Vaishnava Sampradaya .

The philosophy of this school can best be understood as an integral monism , between opposites of the absolute monism of Advaita and the dualistic monism of Dvaita .
