10.2.4
Vaiśeṣika Sūtra / Adhyāya 10 / 10.2.4
तथा रूपे कारणैकार्थसमवायाच्च
tathā rūpe kāraṇaikārthasamavāyācca
The line
So, in that way, in a form, a compound: kāra (कार), ṇaikā (णैका), rtha (र्थ), an equalizing, a rejoinder that turns an example back, and vāyācca (वायाच्च).
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. kāraṇe (कारणे) from 10.2.3 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: tathā (तथा) + rūpe (रूपे) + kāra-ṇaikā-rtha-sama-vāyācca (कार-णैका-र्थ-सम-वायाच्च)
