साधर्म्यात्तुल्यधर्मोपपत्तेः सर्वानित्यत्वप्रसङ्गादनित्यसमः
sādharmyāttulyadharmopapatteḥ sarvānityatvaprasaṅgādanityasamaḥ
The line
Of sādharmyāttulyadharmopapatta (साधर्म्यात्तुल्यधर्मोपपत्त), a compound: all, not eternal, tvapra (त्वप्र), saṅgāda (सङ्गाद), eternal, and an equalizing, a rejoinder that turns an example back.
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. jñāna-vikalpānāṃ (ज्ञान-विकल्पानां) from 5.1.31 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
