10.7.67
Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 10 / 10.7.67
क्रतोश् च तद्गुणत्वात्
kratoś ca tadguṇatvāt
The line
Of a rite and, because of a compound: a quality of that, and the state of being that.
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. virodhitvāc (विरोधित्वाच्) from 10.7.66 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: kratoḥ (क्रतोः) + ca (च) + tadguṇa-tvāt (तद्गुण-त्वात्)
