तस्करकन्दन्यायः (taskarakandanyAyaH)

 
लौकिकन्यायः
English
Ex. अशक्ये विनियुक्तोऽपि कृष्णलाग् श्रपयेदिति। सर्वात्मनाप्यसौ कुर्वन् कुर्यातस्करकन्दुवत्॥ --सुरेश्वराचार्य
This maxim is based on a legend. Once a thief was caught in a kitchen. The thief pleaded that he was a cook, and that he was appointed as a cook in some house. But once he was caught red handed, stealing some articles in the kitchen. This shows that the tendency to do some thing beyond ones scope or capacity ultimately ruins a person.
