2. tayorvinaSTa ekasmiMstaddvaavapi vinashyataH .. 1..
(tayoH; vinaSTe; ekasmin; tat; dvau; api; vinashyataH)
tayoH of those two (vaasanaa and samiiraNa?)
ekasmin "in" one (locative singular from "eka")
vinaSTe "in" being vanished (loc. sing. of the perfect participle
from "vi-nash"):
naz, nazyati 1 ({-te}) & {na3zati} ({-te}), pp. {naSTa3} (q.v.) be
[[,]] lost or missing, vanish, disappear, wane, perish, fly, escape,
be gone. C. {nAza3yati} ({-te}), pp. {nAzita} make disappear, expel,
destroy, violate, deflower; lose, also from memory, i.e. forget. --
{apa} be gone. {ava} wane, disappear. {nis} C. expel, drive away.
{pra} ({Nazyati}) be lost, disappear, run away. {vipra} be lost,
vanish, have no effect or result. {saMpra} disappear, cease. ****{vi}
be lost, vanish, perish, have no effect or success*****; be deprived

tat;dvau "both of those two"
api also
vinashyataH (those two) vanished
Possible translation:
When one of those two vanishes (has no effect??), both vanish
(simultaneously?).
