तथा विरुद्धानां त्यागः
tathā viruddhānāṃ tyāgaḥ
The line
So, in that way, of a contradictory reason, giving up, the relinquishment in the rite.
Where it sits
In Vaiśeṣika (वैशेषिक) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 6. The Veda's sentences, and how dharma (धर्म) and adharma (अधर्म) are known. The line is short. etena (एतेन) from 6.1.12 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
