लौकिकन्यायः
English
Ex. प्रमादिनो बहिश्चित्ताः पिशुनाः कलहोत्सुकाः। संन्यासिनोऽपि दृश्यन्ते देवसन्दूषिताशयाः॥ श्मशानान्ते पुराणान्ते मैथुनान्ते या मतिः। सा मतिः सर्वदा काले (चेत्स्यात् ) नरो नारायगो भवेत्॥ --हितोपदेश, मित्रलाभ 68

The people who come to the cemetary for cremating the dead body, always enshrine the thought that the human life is momentary and all things are destined to come to an end. They brood over the transitoriness of human life. But the moment they come back, the idea of non-attachment vanish away and all of them get engrossed in the temporary worldly affairs. The maxim insists that a momentary rise of detachment which is a reaction to a certain situation, is never effective.
