लौकिकन्यायः
EnglishIf a swan enters a flock of cranes, its real worth is not recognised as both are white in colour. When the cranes come to know that he has come all the way from Mānasa lake, they ask him to describe it. The Mānas lake is full of crystal clear water, golden and precious jewels was the description given by the swan but when the cranes came to know that there are no frogs in the lake, they laugh at the swan and form a very adverse opinion about the lake. The maxim suggests that similarity of colour cannot be a criterion of greatness. The cranes have no idea about the precious jewels--their lustre, value and greatness--so they do not think anything better than the frogs. --सा० 75
