'In the sense of "a little", "both", "doubt", "similarity", / and also in the sense of "contempt", the word "iva" is employed by the learned' / —thus in the Śabdanirṇaya.
Therefore the meaning is: even when there is doubt about having fallen from prosperity. 'Vihṛtam' means especially brought together, united from here and there.
'Because sins are intertwined, that which is intertwined is destructive; / because wealth is not intertwined, intertwining is not destructive [of sin]. / For a similar thing can destroy only its like. / Therefore, because wealth whose destruction has arrived is stronger, / [recitation] bolstered by desire cannot bring about the destruction of sin. / What is intertwined would cause destruction, for there is indeed no desire for the loss of wealth' / —thus in the Svādhyāyatattva.
