This is a very old, unsourced orphan article that doesn't make a lot of sense. Nominally about an element of Hindu philosophy, the only "reference" is a coincidental use from Shakespeare, where the word refers to a bird (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/eyas). Googling the "types of nyas" listed just turns up Wikipedia mirrors. I think this is just nonsense, but bring it here in case this is recognizable as an English-language/transliteration issue.

- Delete -Agreeing with nominator, the article doesn't either make sense to me. Anyway, it fails WP:GNG. I'm open to amend my !vote if someone is able to find "sources" and fix the article to make it reach the GNG standard. Anupmehra -Let's talk! 20:07, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
- Delete - In an attempt to find sources I also tried to google some of the types it gives, with no luck. I'm finding a few more hits for nyas yog and a few other similar terms but none are specifically what's being talked about here. --— Rhododendrites talk \\ 04:39, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
