3.7.13
Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 3 / 3.7.13
तथा यूपस्य वेदि
tathā yūpasya vedi
The line
So, in that way, of yūpa (यूप), one who knows.
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. nivṛtti-darśanāt (निवृत्ति-दर्शनात्) from 3.7.12 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: tathā (तथा) + yūpasya (यूपस्य) + vedi (वेदि)
