अन्धकवर्तकीय न्यायः
संसारसागरमिमं भ्रमता नितान्तं
जीवेन मानवभवः समवापि दैवात् ।
तत्रापि यद् भुवनमान्यकुले प्रसूतिः
सत्सङ्गतिश्च तदिहान्धकवर्तकीयम् ॥
Laukikanyāyakośa
--सा० 655
A blind man was clapping his hand aimlessly,
Incidentally a bird called Vartika (a kind of quail) got
caught up in his hands. Fortunately, without any effort
or without any idea he got the bird. This is a rare
happening. Similarly in our life also, many things
happen due to our good luck or by coincidence.
अन्धकूपन्यायः
Once a blind man was asked to go straight. But he
connived at this advice and ultimately fell in a ditch.
This maxim suggests that he who does not abide by
wholesome advice, is sure to face peril.

अन्धगजन्यायः
Some blind nen were sitting together. A man with his
elephant came there. He asked the blind persons to
describe the animal. Some blindmen touched his pillar-
like feet, some his winnowing basket-like ears, some
his long tusk and some his little tail at the back, and
began to describe the elephant accordingly. As all of
them could not see the animal, they could not give a
complete, integrated picture of the elephant. The maxim
throws light on the people who have partial knowledge
of certian thing and think that the entire thing exists
like that.
