In Vedantic philosophy, ascertaining the absolute truth requires congruence across three authoritative sources (prasthana trayi). Nyaya prasthana specifically refers to the Brahma Sutras composed by Veda Vyasa. While the Vedas provide revealed knowledge and the Gita provides practical application, the Brahma Sutras provide the logical framework. It uses rigorous logic to reconcile apparent contradictions in the Vedas and establish a coherent philosophical system.

For a scriptural fact to be accepted, it must not only align with the Vedas and the Gita but also withstand the logical scrutiny of nyaya prasthana.
