sanskrit

[Upaya (means of successful management)] Upaya is excellence of the first three factors, karana etc., and their proper management leaving aside the karya, karyaphala and anubandha. Procedure leads to performance of an action and thus it is said as upaya. After the action is performed there is no function of procedure nor is it at the time of performance, after action is the result and thereafter consequence.
