⁷⁴⁴ This principle is stated by the मिता. on या. I. 4-5 as 'एतेषां (मन्वादीनां) प्रत्येकं प्रामाण्येपि साकाङ्क्षाणामाकाङ्क्षापरिपूरणमन्यतः क्रियते विरोधे विकल्पः ।.' मेधातिथि on मनु. XI. 216 puts it in the same way 'एकशास्त्रत्वात्सर्वस्मृतीनामसति विरोधे समग्रं योज्यं विरोधे तु विकल्पः'. This view is based on जैमिनि II. 1. 46 अर्थकत्वादेकं वाक्यं साकाङ्क्षं चेद्विभागे स्यात्. The word एकवाक्यता occurs in Vedāntasūtra III. 4. 24. In *Vithal v. Prahlad* 39 Bom. 373 at p. 379 this principle has been judicially recognized.
