The Practical Sanskrit-English Dictionary

अनैकान्तिक [anaikāntika] a.  a. ( की f.)
    unsteady, uncertain; not to the point, not very important; भृत्योऽभृत्य इति ˚कमेतत् [Pt.1.]
   (in logic) name of one of the five main divisions of हेत्वाभास (fallacies,) otherwise called सव्यभिचार. it is of three kinds: (a) साधारण, where the हेतु is found both in the समक्ष and विपक्ष, the argument being therefore too general. (b) असाधारण where the हेतु is in the पक्ष alone, the argument being not general enough. (c) अनुपसंहारी which embraces every known thing in the पक्ष, the argument being nonconclusive.
