The theory of causation as proposed by Śankaradwaita is corroborated by

  • A.Experience
  • B.Logic
  • C.Scriptures
  • D.All the above

Answer: B

The official key gives Logic as the support of the theory of causation proposed by Sankaradvaita. Sankara's theory is that the effect is non-different from the cause, and the effect is only an appearance, vivarta, of Brahman. He argues for this by reasoning in his commentary on the Brahmasutra, while also citing the scriptural example of clay and pots from the Chandogya Upanisad, so 'All the above' is arguable; the key, though, names logic. The answer follows the key: Logic.
