3.6.24
Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 3 / 3.6.24
न श्रुतिविप्रतिषेधात्
na śrutivipratiṣedhāt
The line
Not because of a compound: scripture, and a conflict between two rules.
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 3. Śeṣa (शेष), the subsidiary. How you tell what serves a rite and what the rite serves. The line is short. arthe (अर्थे) from 3.6.23 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: na (न) + śruti-vipratiṣedhāt (श्रुति-विप्रतिषेधात्)
