2.1.33
Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 2 / 2.1.33
शेषे ब्राह्मणशब्दः
śeṣe brāhmaṇaśabdaḥ
The line
In the rest, what remains over, a compound: a brāhmaṇa (ब्राह्मण) passage, and a word.
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 2. Which acts are different acts. The word for an action means the act, and from that the differences among rites are drawn. The line is short. tat-codakeṣu (तत्-चोदकेषु) from 2.1.32 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
