5.42

Tattvārtha Sūtra / 5. Ajīva (अजीव) / 5.42

तद्भावः परिणामः

tadbhāvaḥ pariṇāmaḥ

The line

That, a being, a state, transformation.

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. dravya-āśrayā (द्रव्य-आश्रया) from 5.41 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).

Split: tad (तद्) + bhāvaḥ (भावः) + pariṇāmaḥ (परिणामः)
