combined in one volume (the book is published by Niranjanā
publishers and Book sellers, New Delhi, 1983). These Nyāyas
are chosen from various fields including the S'astric works.
They encompass different types of beliefs, principles or articles
of faith, minor experiences, canons, deeds, crescendos,
catechisms etc. They underline some popular legends prevalent
in folklores which are surrounded with classical aura. As
they are prudent in nature, they enrich the literature and give
it a didactic tinge.
The Nyaya gives some suggested sense. Thus it might
have been clear that a variety of experiences constitute the
main story of the Nyaya or the maxim. In course of time, the
experiences were crystalized in ever growing manner in the
conversations, in different regions, different action-reaction
plans. The efflorescence of human mind with all its glories
and dark sides have shaped various maxims. Any maxim
presupposes three stages-(i) the experience, (ii) couching
the experience briefly in words and then (iii) casting searching
light on human behaviour. The maxims, however, become
impersonal. As such, they attain an abiding place in the
human communications and in the folk literature too and
then to the classical literature.
The next problem is the classification of the maxims
under probable heads. Some broad method of classification
is suggested by the author of the oldest anthology of the
Nyayas-Bhuvanesalaukikanyāya sāhasrī.

वेदान्तशास्त्रगा काचित् कचिच्च शब्दशास्त्रगंगा ॥६॥
काचिभ्यायानुगा काचिन्मीमांसा शास्त्र गा तथा ।
लौकिकोक्तिर्यथा तद्वत् प्रायः प्रोक्ताऽपरापिवा॥७॥
अर्थमात्रं क्वचित्तेषामर्धे स्पष्टे स्फुटं स्मृतम्।
प्रायः सङ्क्षेपतः प्रोक्तं विस्तरादपि च क्वचित्॥८॥
