Dvaita Vedānta
Sūtra
स्मृत्यनवकाशदोषप्रसङ्ग इति चेन्नान्यस्मृत्यनवकाशदोषप्रसङ्गात्
smṛtyanavakāśadoṣaprasaṅga iti cennānyasmṛtyanavakāśadoṣaprasaṅgāt
Sūtra translation
If it be objected that there would result the loss of authoritativeness of Scripture, from the contradiction of Smritis of undoubted authority (testimony), we refute this objection, because the erroneousness of these Smritis results from being contradictory to other Smritis agreeing with Scripture of (absolutely) undoubted authority.
(It may be stated that) Rudra and others are known to be perfectly wise; hence being contradictory to their statements, Scripture should lose its authoritativeness. But this cannot be, for there are other Smritis derived from Vishnu and others who are absolutely perfect in wisdom; hence (from their agreement and corroboration) the superiority of Scripture becomes settled.
