On a night more than two thousand years ago, a prince was born in India. He could have been the most powerful rajah in all the world. But instead, the prince chose to become a common beggar, seeking a way to end the suffering he saw around him. He knew riches could not end suffering. He learned that deprivation could not end suffering. Then, under an enormous spreading fig tree, deep in concentration, he found Enlightenment. He understood Dharma, the law governing all things. He had achieved Nirvana, the peace that triumphs over suffering. And he found this knowledge and understanding inside his own mind, nowhere else. He became the Buddha, and taught his way of ending suffering to all who wished to learn.

Le Nyaya-Sutra et surtout le Nyaya-Bhasya representent le questionnement originel des philosophes sanskrits de l'Inde ancienne. On y discute de tout, avec une belle allegresse, jusqu'a poser les regles de l'art du debat et de la pensee en un temps ou la dialectique n'est pas encore devenue de la logique, mais constitue une pratique spirituelle au service de la presence au monde. Le Nyaya des origines, avant de devenir le regard ou l'intelligente raison contemple ses formes seches, affiche une belle liberte d'esprit qu'on n'attend pas a propos d'une culture souvent decrite comme celle des verites soteriologiques et des chimeres mythologiques. On ne peut savoir quel etait l'art de vivre de ces philosophes, mais le Nyaya montre comment ils avaient developpe un art de diriger la pensee dans la direction de la vie.
