Where it sits
In Tattvārtha (तत्त्वार्थ) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 2. Jīva (जीव). The soul, its states, and the kinds of beings. The line is short. dvina-vāṣṭā-daśa-ikavi-ṃśatitri-bhedā (द्विन-वाष्टा-दश-इकवि-ंशतित्रि-भेदा) from 2.2 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
