In the Harivamsha Purana,
There are three types of Dravyarthic Nayas, which are general in scope. There are four other types of Paryayarthic Nayas, which are specific in scope. ||42||
The Nay that accepts only the concept of an object is called Naigam Nay. Examples of this are Prastha and Odan. ||43||
The Nay that accepts all objects by bringing together their various aspects and synonyms is called Sangrah Nay. For example, Sat or Dravy. ||44||
The Nay that differentiates objects is called Vyavahar Nay. It takes the objects of Sangrah Nay, such as Sat, Dravy, and Guna, and differentiates them further. ||45||
The Nay that accepts only the present aspect of an object, ignoring its past and future aspects, is called Rijusutra Nay. ||46||
The Nay that is based on the meaning of words, and considers factors like gender, means, number, case, tense, and modifiers, is called Shabd Nay. ||47||
