THE
VYAVAHĀRAMAYŪKHA
Composed by
BHATTA NĪLAKANTHA
1 Having spoken of the ways of royal policy and fittingly bowed to the
lotus-like feet of the refulgent (Sun), Nīlakantha composes a little (work) on
the disposal (decision) of vyavahāra (judicial proceedings)
2 I contemplate my revered (father) S'aṅkara, the only leader among
the best of Brāhmanas, who looked after the religious practices (of the peo-
ple), who was endowed with happiness, who was the teacher of all in Kās'ī
(Benares)
3 That highest Person, who appeared in two forms in this world for
propounding two conflicting paths (systems), has here (now) accepted the
non-difference of (the views of the two) Mīmāmsakas, (being born) in one
form as Bhatta S'aṅkara
4 There are certain (doctrines) here which are accepted by some who
lead (people) astray; I have discarded them as they are baseless On account
of this (discarding) there is no deficiency of treatment in this (work), wor-
ship does not become deficient by the absence of the flower of the sky
V 1 'Having spoken policy'—This refers to the composition of the Nītimayūkha,
which immediately preceded that of the Vyavahāramayūkha
V 2 This verse also applies to god S'aṅkara by means of Śleṣa (Paronomasia) The
words द्विजराज, वृष, शिवान्वित are paronomastic The verse (with S'aṅkara) means 'I contem-
plate (the god) S'aṅkara, who has the moon as the only thing (by way of decoration) on his head
who is the lord of the Bull, who is accompanied by Pārvatī (called S'ivā), who is the inspirer
of all in Kās'ī and who is an object of worship'. S'iva is the presiding deity of Benares
V 3 For detailed explanation of this verse, vide notes to V M pp 1—3 The two
Mīmāmsakas are Prabhākara and Kumārila Nīlakantha claims that his father explained
away the differences between the views of Prabhākara and Kumārila Mandlik's explanation
that the first half of the verse refers to S'ankara and Kumārila and that the latter half says that
S'aṅkarabhatta accepted the identity of the human soul with the divine essence propounded
by Vyāsa is far-fetched and wrong The doctrine of advaita was not propounded by
Mīmāmsakas properly so called and Vyāsa and his school are hardly ever designated
Mīmāmsakas.
V 4. Khapuspa (sky—flower) is a symbol of what is absolutely non existent Vide
notes to V. M. p. 3 for khapuspa.

2 VYAVAHĀRAMAYŪKHA [S. I. 1 1-4
[M. p. 1 l. 20-p. 2 l. 20
Vyavahāra is an action or operation that facilitates the exposure of
the wrong that is not known (at the time when the
Definition of operation begins as belonging to one) and that pertains
Vyavahāra to one out of the several persons that have a dispute
(about it), or it is an operation in which the plaintiff
and the defendant are the agents, in which possession, witnesses and (other)
means of proof are applicable (according to circumstances) and which helps the
establishment (of truth) in the midst of conflicting alternatives. Accord-
ing to the Madanaratna in the case of a reply of confession¹ (to the claim
of the plaintiff) the term vyavahāra is applied (only) in a secondary sense.
The latter part² (of the above definition) serves the purpose of excluding
(from the denotation of vyavahāra) vāda, vitaṇḍā and the like.
Now (as to) the titles of Vyavahāra. Now (as to) its divisions, Yājñava-
lkya says (2. 5)
If one invaded by others in a way that is in conflict with the smṛtis
and established usage complains to the king, that becomes a subject of
vyavahāra.
The word ādharṣitaḥ means ill-treated, despised.
Manu (8. 4-7) speaks of eighteen divisions of the subjects of vyavahāra.
Of them the first is (1) the non-payment of debts, (then) (2) deposit,
(3) sale by one who is not the owner, (4) partnership, (5) resumption of
gifts, (6) non-payment of wages, (7) breach of compacts or conventions, (8)
rescission of purchase and sale, (9) dispute between master and herdsman,
(10) rules about boundary disputes, (11, 12) harshness of bodily injury and
speech (i.e. assault and defamation), (13) theft, (14) violent offences,
(15) adultery, (16) duties of husband and wife, (17) partition, (18)
gambling and prize-fighting. These are the eighteen subjects here in the
sphere of vyavahāra.
'Anapākarma' means not giving. 'Anuśayaḥ' means repentance (i.e.
rescission). Dyūtam means playing by means of inanimate objects (like
dice), (while) samāhvaya means gaming by means of animate objects. In this
(above) passage adultery and harshness of speech and assault are separately

1. Reply of confession.—When a plaintiff lodged his complaint, the defendant had to
   give a reply which was of four kinds, viz. a total denial (mithyā), a confession or admission
   of plaintiff's claim (saṁpratipatti), a plea of cause (i.e. accepting the whole or part of the
   plaintiff's averments and meeting them with a counter-cause), a plea of res judicata (prāṅ-
   nyāya). When the defendant admits plaintiff's claim, there is no necessity to employ means
   of proof and to establish the truth by reasoning. Hence the definition of vyavahāra in
   which the plaintiff ... alternatives cannot primarily apply to such a proceeding.
2. The latter part, i.e., the words 'in which possession ... alternatives'. For
   explanation of vāda and vitaṇḍā vide notes to V. M. pp. 4–5. These are technical terms in
   Nyāya. In both there are disputants, but in vāda the pramāṇas are pratyakṣa, anumāna
   &c. and not possession &c. In vitaṇḍā (mere cavilling) there is no attempt to find out the
   truth, but there is simply a desire to ridicule and vanquish one's opponent.
   P. 2 (text)

mentioned (from sāhasa) according to the maxim of the cattle and the bull¹,
though they are (mere) varieties of sāhasa according to the dictum of
Bṛhaspati ( p 359 v 1):
Sāhasa is of four kinds, viz killing a man, robbery, intercourse with
another's wife and harshness of two kinds
The nature of these eighteen (divisions) will be explained later on.
Now the summary of the fundamentals² of vyavahāra (judicial procedure).
Bṛhaspati ( p 279 v 18 ) says :
(The king) should construct a separate building in his fort, with water
and trees near it, ( and ) on the eastern side of it he should prepare the
court-room, facing the east and possessed of all the good characteristics (of
a sabhā).

• The same (i e sabhā) is (styled) dharmādhikaraṇa (hall of justice),
  as the text of Kātyāyana says
  That place, where the sifting of truth and falsehood after deliberation
  in accordance with dharmaś'āstra (the science of law) is authoritatively
  made is the dharmādhikaraṇa ( the hall of justice )
  Manu ( 8 1--2 ) says ;
  The king desirous of investigating judicial proceedings should enter the
  sabhā ( court ), being well-mannered and wearing a dress and ornaments
  befitting good breeding, along with ministers well-versed in state policy and
  with brāhmaṇas, ( and ) should look into the causes of the litigants.
  Yājñavalkya ( 2 1 ) says :
  The king, being free from anger and avarice, should investigate judicial
  proceedings along with learned brāhmaṇas in conformity with dharma-
  s'āstra
  ( The word ) ' nṛpaḥ ' ( means ) any one whatever ( of any caste )
  having authority to protect the subjects and not merely a ksatriya ( a
  man of the warrior caste ) Kātyāyana ( says )
  The king who looks into ( the judicial proceedings ) together with the
  judge, the councillors, the brāhmaṇas, the family priest and the sabhyas
  ( assessors, respectable men ) reaches heaven on account of ( his having
  followed ) dharma ( the dictates of righteousness )

1. ' The maxim of the cattle and the bull ' — For detailed explanation vide notes to
   V. M. p 6 When a man says ' let cattle be brought and bulls also ', this mode of expression
   is employed to draw special attention to the intractability of bulls, though the latter are
   included in the generic term ' cattle ' So robbery and adultery are separately mentioned
   apart from sāhasa by Manu, though they are varieties of sāhasa, in order to draw special
   attention to these important heads of vyavahāra.
2. The word mātṛkā means ' fundamentals, basis '. Jīmūtavāhana's work dealing with
   general rules of procedure and the means of proof is styled Vyavahāramātṛkā.

• P 8 (text)

4 ] VYAVAHĀRAMAYŪKHA [ S I 1 6-3
[ M p 3 l 15-p. 4 l. 0
In this passage (the word) brāhmaṇa (means) one who is not
appointed (as a member of the court to decide causes) while sabhyas
(assessors) are those who are appointed (by the king to decide causes)
And to the same effect it has been said (Nārada p. 36 v 2)
One who knows dharma, whether appointed or not must speak out
(what the decision should be¹)
Bṛhaspati (278 v 12) declares the definition of (prāḍvivāka) a judge —
He who in a controversy asks questions and also cross-questions and
who is the first to speak (to a litigant) in a sweet manner is therefore
known as prāḍvivāka

• Vyāsa declares the definition of amātya (councillor)
  The king should appoint as amātya a person of the regenerate classes who
  knows all the śāstras who is not avaricious, who utters what is just who
  is a brāhmaṇa who is wise and to whom the office comes hereditarily
  In this passage the word dvija (a man of the regenerate classes) is used
  again (even after the word vipra a brāhmaṇa) for the purpose of including
  a kṣatriya or a vaiśya (for appointment as minister²) in the absence of a
  brāhmaṇa To the same effect (18) Kātyāyana
  Where there is no learned brāhmaṇa, (the king) should appoint a
  kṣatriya or a vaiśya who is proficient in dharmaśāstra (but he) should
  carefully exclude a śūdra
  And Yājñavalkya (2-2) says as regards sabhyas (members of the court)
  The king should appoint as members of the sabhā (court of justice)
  those who are endowed with Vedic learning who are learned in dharma
  (law) who speak the truth who do equal (justice) to friend and foe
  As regards their number Bṛhaspati (p 278 v 11) says
  That sabhā (court) where are seated seven five or even three brāhmaṇas
  who are conversant with worldly affairs and who are learned in the Vedas
  and in dharma (law) resembles (in holiness) a yajña (sacrifice)
  The same author (p 279 v 14) says
  The king should appoint as gaṇaka (accountant) and lekhaka (scribe)
  two persons who are versed in the principles of grammar (śabda) and
  lexicography (abhidhāna) who are proficient in reckoning (casting figures)
  who are pure and who are acquainted with various alphabets
  1 On the words 'appointed and sabhya vide notes to V M. pp. 10-11
  2 Bṛhaspati, as quoted in the Vyavahāramātṛkā of Jīmūtavāhana says In a sacrifice
  is honoured Viṣṇu while in vyavahāra the king (is honoured) there (in sacrifice) the
  sacrificer is the successful (party) and the animal (sacrificed) is the vanquished party
  (as in a litigation) the plaint and the reply are the clarified butter and the conclusion is
  (havis) the offering the Śāstra (dharmaśāstra) is the Veda and the sabhyas are the sacrificial
  priests who receive dakṣiṇā (payment for acting as adjudicators)
