लपोरशङ्खन्यायः (laporazaGkhanyAyaH)

 
लौकिकन्यायः
English
Ex. शङिखनी काञ्चनं दद्योदहं शङ्खो लपोरकः वादामि बहवाक्यानि ददामि कपर्दिकाम्॥ The maxim maintains that a goddess called "Śankhinī may offer gold to the devotee if she is pleased with him. But conch "Śankha" which simply produces sound (Laporaka) does not give anything. Just by similarity in name, one should not expect even a cowrie from the Śankha (the conch). --सा० 938
