10.1.5
Vaiśeṣika Sūtra / Adhyāya 10 / 10.1.5
सति च कार्यादर्शनात्
sati ca kāryādarśanāt
The line
In when it is, it being so and, because of a compound: kāryā (कार्या), and seeing.
Where it sits
In Vaiśeṣika (वैशेषिक) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Pleasure and pain are different things. The book closes on the authority of the Veda. The line is short. abhūdityapi (अभूदित्यपि) from 10.1.4 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: sati (सति) + ca (च) + kāryā-darśanāt (कार्या-दर्शनात्)
