6.5.33
Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 6 / 6.5.33
अन्या अपीति चेत्
anyā apīti cet
The line
If you say that another even, then.
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. māghī (माघी) from 6.5.32 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: anyā (अन्या) + api (अपि) + iti (इति) + cet (चेत्)
