''The material and spiritual potencies of the Absolute as being simultaneously one and different with Him''(lord)
or
Translation: "Tattva, acintya bheda bheda Tattva" means "simultaneous oneness and difference".

[ Acintya-bhedåbheda-tattva
Simultaneous oneness and difference
of the Lord and His potencies
From the above discussion, it is proved that the living
entities (jîvas), the material world (ja?a-jagata), and the Lord’s
personal splendour as regards His Vaikuv†ha existence (tadrüpa-
vaibhava) are inconceivably one and different from His
original spiritual form (bhagavat-svarüpa). The anucit-jîvas, on
account of being dependent on the Lord, are His separated
parts and parcels—in this is found their non-distinction from
the Lord (abheda). However, due to an absence of knowledge
of the Supreme Lord, they are preoccupied with the material
energy—in this lies their difference (bheda) ]

In other words...

Though we come in various forms and though we are all individuals, we all come from the same source, we are made of the same material/substance, but we are very much different from each other physically. The same is true for everything in nature.

As for "Tattva", tattva means reality, principle, and truth. It can be thought of as an awakening, when one realizes that there is more to life than what he sees through his eyes.

A better way to look at it is like this: There is no creation of the living entity. We are eternal entities, separated expansions of the One Lord. From the angle of the Lord, He is everything, including us. From the angle of the separated expansion, we are different from the Lord. Thus, there is simultaneous oneness and difference/inscrutable simultaneous distinction and non-distinction ("tattva achintya bheda bheda tattva") based on the angle of vision of the perceiver. The following is a interesting site , http://premavatar.tripod.com/focm/lyrics.html

Achintya Bhedabheda is a Vedanta doctrine taught by Chaitanya Mahaprabhu as a synthesis of the teachings of all the Vaishnava sampradayas. It means "inconceivably (achintya) dualistic (bheda) and monistic (abheda)".

It was in his Sarva-samvadini commentary to the Six Sandarbhas that Jiva Goswami first used the term Achinyta-bhedabheda to describe the philosophy of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. In essence, the philosophy of Achintya-bhedabheda, or inconcieveble oneness and difference, avoids the extremes of Shankara’s monistic Advaitavada and Madhva’s pure dualism (Dvaita) by interpreting the material and spiritual potencies of the Absolute as being simultaneously one and different with Him.

This central concept of Gaudiya Vaishnava Theology teaches that the absolute reality can be understood as non-dual and unmanifest (immanent brahmajyoti) and as dual (transcendent personal God). Thus it can be considered a form of panentheism. It is the philosophy followed by ISKCON (Hare Krishna movement)

Sounds like Sanskrit.. The ancient language of India
Tattvam: Thou
Chinta : thought
Achintya: Without thought
Bheda: To separate

It would translate then as: Thou, in the absence of thought are split again and again into yourself

Sanskrit is a very old language, though, oddly enough, is supposed to be the ideal language for computer programming.. read that somewhere..

Outside Egypt there are two types: 1- Those who had been shut up by their governments; by blinding them with money and cars and stuff; so they thought they are treated like 1st class citizen.....zay dewal el5aleeg 2- Those who are asking for their rights in their countries, so they get 'em. In Egypt: You are treated like a 2nd class citizen; because you behave as a second class citizen when it comes to asking for your rights
