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. ālocana-prati-krama-ṇatadu-bhaya-vive-kavyu-tsarga-tapa-śche-dapa-rihā-ropa-sthā-panāḥ (आलोचन-प्रति-क्रम-णतदु-भय-विवे-कव्यु-त्सर्ग-तप-श्छे-दप-रिहा-रोप-स्था-पनाः) from 9.22 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
