Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 11. One performance serving many purposes, and when the acts stay separate. The line is short. asaṃsṛṣṭo (असंसृष्टो) from 11.1.58 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: vibhavāt (विभवात्) + vā (वा) + pradīpavat (प्रदीपवत्)
