________________ नयकर्णिका NAYA-KARNIKA. TEXT AND TRANSLATION. Naya-karnika is coinposed of two words, naya and karnikú. Naya means a standpoint or an aspect of viewing a thing from that standpoint or aspect. Karnikâ means a pericarp, or the central point, of a flower. The thing which is to be viewed from different aspects is the pericarp or the central point, and the various standpoints from which it is viewed form the various petals surrounding thepericarp. Thus the title 'Naya-Karnika' is fully appropriate to the subject-matter of this book. Taken as a whole, Naya-karnikâ means a flowerwhich bas for its pericarp, or central point, the thing to be viewed ; and for its petals the various standpoints from which it is to be viewed.
