Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 6 / 6.7.40
अहानि वाभिसंख्यत्वात्
ahāni vābhisaṃkhyatvāt
The line
In ahāna (अहान), because of vābhisaṃkhyatva (वाभिसंख्यत्व).
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. sā (सा) from 6.7.39 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
