tataścāsambaddham idaṃ kumārilenoktam "tasmād ekasya bhinneṣu yā vṛttis tannibandhanaḥ / sāmānyaśabdaḥ sattādāvekadhīkaraṇena vā"
Therefore, this statement by Kumārila is entirely irrelevant: "Thus, either the occurrence of one [thing] in several different [things] or [their] being the basis of a single cognition is the ground for the term 'universal' as applied to 'being' etc."
