4.3.29
Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 4 / 4.3.29
समवाये चोदनासंयोगस्यार्थवत्वात्
samavāye codanāsaṃyogasyārthavatvāt
The line
In inherence, because of a compound: a command, conjunction, syārtha (स्यार्थ), and vatva (वत्व).
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 4. What is for the rite, and what is for the person. The line is short. yoga-siddhiḥ (योग-सिद्धिः) from 4.3.28 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: samavāye (समवाये) + codanā-saṃyoga-syārtha-vatvāt (चोदना-संयोग-स्यार्थ-वत्वात्)
