न वियदश्रुतेः
na viyadaśruteḥ
The line
Not of a compound: viyada (वियद), and heard.
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. vipratiṣedhāt (विप्रतिषेधात्) from 2.2.42 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
