3.1.16
Brahma Sūtra / Adhyāya 3 / 3.1.16
तत्रापि तद्व्यापारादविरोधः
tatrāpi tadvyāpārādavirodhaḥ
The line
There even, a compound: tadvyā (तद्व्या), pārāda (पाराद), and a clash.
Where it sits
In Brahma Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 3. Sādhana (साधन). The means: who is fit, what is meditated on, and the soul's path. The line is short. sapta (सप्त) from 3.1.15 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: tatra (तत्र) + api (अपि) + tadvyā-pārāda-virodhaḥ (तद्व्या-पाराद-विरोधः)
