An exhaustive collection of popular maxims (nyayas) of Sanskrit literature with English translation and notes.

This book, Laukika Nyayanjali (рд▓реМрдХрд┐рдХ рдиреНрдпрд╛рдпрд╛рдЮреНрдЬрд▓рд┐рдГ) or Handful of Popular Maxims, contains three volumes of handful of popular Sanskrit maxims authored by Col. G. A. Jacob in the beginning of 20th century. A “nyaya” is a popular maxim (proverbial saying) that illustrates a general truth, fundamenatl principle or rule of conduct.

Apart from giving an insight into the life and beliefs of ancient people these maxims are current and useful in scholarly discussions and academic gatherings among Sanskritists. These Nyayas are still valuable and relevant in judicial circles in the interpretations of law and jurisprudence in modern India. Sanskrit poets have enriched and embellished Sanskrit language by various devices among which the maxims or Nyayas occupy an important place.
