Where it sits
In Vaiśeṣika (वैशेषिक) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 9. What is not yet, and the kinds of cognition, including absence. The line is short. tathā-āpas-tejaḥ (तथा-आपस्-तेजः) from 8.2.6 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
