Where it sits
In Vaiśeṣika (वैशेषिक) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 5. Action: movement in the hand, and what sets a thing moving. The line is short. abhighātaje (अभिघातजे) from 5.1.3 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: tathātma-saṃyogaḥ (तथात्म-संयोगः) + hastakarmaṇi (हस्तकर्मणि)
