absolustic view. Mallişeņasuri (15th centuy) clearly categorises the Indian philosophies in different nayābhāsas. Upādhyāya, Yaśovijaya (17“ century) has supported him. Which Indian system comes under the category of which nayābhāsa is shown below: Nayābhāsa

Vyākarana This classfication of nayābhāsa was discussed by Mallişeņasūri in his syādvādamañjart' and by Yaśovijaya in his Adhyātmasāra.? Explanation Regarding Nayābhāsas:
In our language there are different words for substances, qualities, motions and relations. Naigamanaya consists in describing them as different. But Nyaya-Vaiseśikaş accept different categories (padārthas) as absolutely distinct from each other like substance, quality, action, univarsal etc. Hence the Jainas accuse the Naiyāyikas and Vaiseșikas for committing the fallacy called naigamābhāsa (Pseudo-pluralistic view).
Corresponding to each type of sangrahanaya, Jainas conceived of the corresponding sangrahabhasa. For example
Syadvādamañjarī, p.248 "Adhyātmasāra, verse 879.
