Where it sits
In Tattvārtha (तत्त्वार्थ) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 9. Saṃvara (संवर) and nirjarā (निर्जरा). Stoppage, and the wearing away. The line is short. anaśa-nāva-maudarya-vṛtti-parisaṃkhyā-nara-sapari-tyāga-vivi-ktaśa-yyāsana-kāya-kleśā (अनश-नाव-मौदर्य-वृत्ति-परिसंख्या-नर-सपरि-त्याग-विवि-क्तश-य्यासन-काय-क्लेशा) from 9.19 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
