Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 10 / 10.7.72
यथाश्रुतीति चेत्
yathāśrutīti cet
The line
If you say that in a compound: as, and śrutīta (श्रुतीत), then.
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. kratu-antare (क्रतु-अन्तरे) from 10.7.71 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: yathā-śrutīti (यथा-श्रुतीति) + cet (चेत्)
