Sādhāraṇadharmas are to be practised by ................
Answer: A
Sādhāraṇa dharmas are to be practised by all human beings.
Hindu ethics distinguishes duties specific to one's class and stage of life (varṇāśrama dharma, also called viśeṣa dharma) from common duties (sādhāraṇa dharma) binding on everyone, whatever their class, stage, sex or community: non-injury, truthfulness, non-stealing, purity and self-control, in Manu's list.
Restricting them to Hindus or Indians misses their point, which is universality across human beings. 'All beings' goes too far, since duties apply to moral agents, not to animals or plants.
