Discussion
Consider the following statements with respect to Sāmkhya, mark the incorrect statement :
Answer: D
The incorrect statement is that kevala implies non-distinction of prakṛti and puruṣa.
In Sāṃkhya, bondage arises from failing to distinguish puruṣa, pure consciousness, from prakṛti and its products. Liberation (kaivalya) comes through viveka-jñāna, the discriminating knowledge of their difference; it is the isolation of puruṣa, the very opposite of non-distinction.
The other statements are Sāṃkhya teaching: all experience is infected with threefold suffering, suffering lasts while puruṣa is associated with citta, and in kaivalya the impressions (saṃskāras) and ignorance are destroyed.
