9.1.24
Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 9 / 9.1.24
न यज्ञस्याश्रुतित्वात्
na yajñasyāśrutitvāt
The line
Not because of a compound: a sacrifice, syāśru (स्याश्रु), and titva (तित्व).
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 9. Ūha (ऊह): adapting mantras and details when they are transferred. The line is short. praṇītādi (प्रणीतादि) from 9.1.23 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: na (न) + yajña-syāśru-titvāt (यज्ञ-स्याश्रु-तित्वात्)
