11.2.60
Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 11 / 11.2.60
अतिकर्षो वार्थहेतुत्वात्
atikarṣo vārthahetutvāt
The line
atikarṣa (अतिकर्ष), because of a compound: or, a thing, a meaning, a reason, and the state of being that.
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. samāna-vacanaṃ (समान-वचनं) from 11.2.59 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: atikarṣo (अतिकर्षो) + vā-artha-hetu-tvāt (वा-अर्थ-हेतु-त्वात्)
