Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 10 / 10.4.11
प्रयाजवदिति चेत्
prayājavad iti cet
The line
If you say that prayājavad (प्रयाजवद्), then.
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. saṃskāre (संस्कारे) from 10.4.10 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: prayājavad (प्रयाजवद्) + iti (इति) + cet (चेत्)
