4.3.4
Brahma Sūtra / Adhyāya 4 / 4.3.4
आतिवाहिकास् तल्लिङ्गात्
ātivāhikās talliṅgāt
The line
ātivāhikās (आतिवाहिकास्), because of a compound: that, and a mark.
Where it sits
In Brahma Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 4. Phala. The result. The last line says there is no return. The line is short. taṭito (तटितो) from 4.3.3 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: ātivāhikās (आतिवाहिकास्) + tat-liṅgāt (तत्-लिङ्गात्)
