Where it sits
In Vaiśeṣika (वैशेषिक) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 2. Earth, water, fire, air, and the qualities that mark them. Then ether, time, and space. The line is short. śabdā-liṅgā-viśe-ṣādvi-śeṣa-liṅgā-bhāvācca (शब्दा-लिङ्गा-विशे-षाद्वि-शेष-लिङ्गा-भावाच्च) from 2.1.30 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
