A naya is a standpoint, such as that of substance or of change, of the ordinary or of the ultimate. Nayavāda classifies these partial views and shows that error arises when one is taken for the whole. With syādvāda it forms the Jain account of how limited minds may speak truly about an inexhaustible reality.
