4.1.52

Nyāya Sūtra / Adhyāya 4 / 4.1.52

प्रीतेरात्माश्रयत्वादप्रतिषेधः

prīterātmāśrayatvādapratiṣedhaḥ

The line

A compound: prīte (प्रीते), rātmā (रात्मा), śraya (श्रय), tvāda (त्वाद), and a denial.

Where it sits

In Nyāya (न्याय) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 4. Examines action, fault, rebirth, fruit, pain, and release, and then the whole and the part. The line is short. āśraya-vyati-rekāt (आश्रय-व्यति-रेकात्) from 4.1.51 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
