Sajatiya Bhed Shunya (सजातीय भेद शून्य)

Sajatiya Bhed Shunya (सजातीय भेद शून्य | sajātīya bhēda śūnya) refers to the absence of distinction between entities belonging to the same category or nature.

In Vedic philosophy, Shri Krishna is described as Sajatiya Bhed Shunya because He is non-different from His own divine expansions (avataras). Although Shri Krishna is the Avatari (the original source) and the avataras are His descensions, they all possess the same Supreme Divine nature. Every avatara is fully God and governs Yogmaya Shakti.

Thus, while there is a functional distinction between the original source and His manifestations, there is no difference in their essential divinity. Shri Krishna is therefore said to be Sajatiya Bhed Shunya—free from distinction within His own divine category.
