Where it sits
In Tattvārtha (तत्त्वार्थ) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 5. Ajīva (अजीव). What is not soul: the media of motion and rest, space, matter, and time. The line is short. śabda-bandha-saukṣmya-stha-ulya-saṃsthāna-bheda-tama-śchā-yāta-podyo-tavantaḥ (शब्द-बन्ध-सौक्ष्म्य-स्थ-उल्य-संस्थान-भेद-तम-श्छा-यात-पोद्यो-तवन्तः) from 5.24 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
