The line
saguṇadravyotpattivat (सगुणद्रव्योत्पत्तिवत्), tadutpatta (तदुत्पत्त).
Where it sits
In Nyāya (न्याय) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 3. Examines the objects: the self, the body, the senses, the mind. The line is short. vīta-rāga-janmā-darśanāt (वीत-राग-जन्मा-दर्शनात्) from 3.1.24 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
