2.2.32
Brahma Sūtra / Adhyāya 2 / 2.2.32
एवं चात्माकार्त्स्न्यम्
evaṃ cātmākārtsnyam
The line
Thus, cātmākārtsnya (चात्माकार्त्स्न्य).
Where it sits
In Brahma Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 2. Avirodha. The teaching does not collide with reasoning, or with the other systems, in the way an objector claims. The line is short. naikasminn (नैकस्मिन्न्) from 2.2.31 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
