Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 12 / 12.1.43

सन्नहनहरणे तथेति चेत्

sannahanaharaṇe tatheti cet

The line

If you say that in sannahanaharaṇa (सन्नहनहरण), so, in that way, then.

Where it sits

In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 12. Prasaṅga (प्रसङ्ग), incidental application, and vikalpa (विकल्प), option. The line is short. deśa-pṛthaktvān (देश-पृथक्त्वान्) from 12.1.42 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
