5.1.28
Nyāya Sūtra / Adhyāya 5 / 5.1.28
कारणान्तरादपि तद्धर्मोपपत्तेरप्रतिषेधः
kāraṇāntarādapi taddharmopapatterapratiṣedhaḥ
The line
In kāraṇāntarādapa (कारणान्तरादप), a compound: taddha (तद्ध), rmopa (र्मोप), pattera (पत्तेर), and a denial.
Where it sits
In Nyāya (न्याय) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 5. The false rejoinders, called jāti (जाति), and the points on which a debate is lost. The line is short. nirdiṣṭa-kāraṇa-abhāve (निर्दिष्ट-कारण-अभावे) from 5.1.27 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: kāraṇāntarādapi (कारणान्तरादपि) + taddha-rmopa-pattera-pratiṣedhaḥ (तद्ध-र्मोप-पत्तेर-प्रतिषेधः)
