11.2.17
Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 11 / 11.2.17
तथा तदवयवेषु स्यात्
tathā tadavayaveṣu syāt
The line
So, in that way, in tadavayava (तदवयव), it would be, let it be granted.
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. cānyārthadarśanam (चान्यार्थदर्शनम्) from 11.2.16 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
