श्येनाधिकरणन्यायः (zyenAdhikaraNanyAyaH)

 
लौकिकन्यायः
English
Cf. देवताधिकरणन्यायः, पाष्ठतिर्थगधिकरणन्यायः
Some Vedic injunctions prescribe the deity worship (upāsana). This can be effected even by the superimposed godhood and the injunction of worship can be valid. But this is not correct. Inspite of the worshiporiented injunction, the suggested meaning can be valid, in accordance with the Devatādhikaraṇanyāya. The Śyenādhikarṇanyāya also conveys the same idea. --सा० 847
