In ancient scriptures, it is a practice that while writing in the form of aphorisms (Sutra Shaili/Style of writing), to indicate the end of the scripture, the author repeats the last aphorism twice. In “Brahma Sutra” of Vyasa Maharishi who is the guru of Jaimini Mahrarishi, at the end of this scripture in the last aphorism of 4th Adhyaya he has indicated the completion of the scripture by last Sutra “Anaavrutthihi shabdhath Anaavruthihi shabdhath”

At the end of the Second Adhyaya, Jaimini Maharishi also mentioned the Aphorism “Anyadha Anyadha Siddha Manyath”. This signified the end of Second Adhyaya. Hence, Jaimini Sutras ended with the 36th Sutra.
