Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 9 / 9.2.57

उभयोरविशेषात्

ubhayor aviśeṣāt

The line

Of of both, because of because there is no difference.

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. adhikāra-katvāt (अधिकार-कत्वात्) from 9.2.56 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
