घट्टकुटीप्रभातन्यायः (ghaTTakuTIprabhAtanyAyaH)

 
लौकिकन्यायः
English
ननु स्फोटव्यञ्जकतापक्षोऽपि प्रागुक्ताविकल्पप्रसरेण घटकुटीप्रभातयितमिति चेत्, तदेतत् मनोराज्यादि जृम्भणम्।
This maxim is based on the event "Dawn at the toll gate". A driver drives his vehicle in a round about way, through lanes and bylanes in order to avoid the payment of toll amount. He goes on travelling like that in his vehicle and finally in the morning reaches a place which was nothing but the toll gate only. When a man tries consciously to avoid a particular thing unluckily, he has to face the same event, even after his conscious endeavour to avoid it. This maxim applies to such situations.
