Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 6. Who may perform. Eligibility, and the way substances are tied to an act. The line is short. krītatvāt (क्रीतत्वात्) from 6.1.19 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: phalārthitvāt (फलार्थित्वात्) + tu (तु) + svāmi-tvenābhi-sambandhaḥ (स्वामि-त्वेनाभि-सम्बन्धः)
