paraśvādiṣu ārambhanivṛttidarśanāt
The line
In a compound: another, the higher, and śvāda (श्वाद), because of a compound: a making by parts, the stopping, and seeing.
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. tat-liṅga-tvāt (तत्-लिङ्ग-त्वात्) from 3.2.35 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: para-śvādiṣu (पर-श्वादिषु) + ārambha-nivṛtti-darśanāt (आरम्भ-निवृत्ति-दर्शनात्)
