लौकिकन्यायः
Englishअतिपरिचयादवज्ञा सन्ततगमनादरो भवति । मलये भिल्लपुरन्ध्री चन्दनतरुकाष्ठमिन्धनं कुरुते ॥ - सुभाषित, शार्ङ्गधरणपद्धति नीति 83
'Familiarity breeds contempt'--is the implication of this maxim. The Bhillas use scented, expensive sandal wood as firewood because they get it easily and in plenty on the Malaya mountain. They do not think about the value of the sandal and burn it like ordinary firewood--This is an example of too much of familiarity leading to contempt.
