(d) Adṛṣṭa(4) Intrinsically excellent

  • A.a-4, b-3, c-2, d-1
  • B.a-4, b-1, c-3, d-2
  • C.a-4, b-3, c-1, d-2
  • D.a-2, b-4, c-3, d-1

Answer: C

The match is a-4, b-3, c-1, d-2.

The Kaṭha Upaniṣad contrasts śreyas, the intrinsically good, with preyas, the merely pleasant. Apūrva is the Mīmāṃsakas' unseen potency that links a sacrifice to its later fruit, and adṛṣṭa is the Vaiśeṣika's unseen force of merit and demerit.

Every other code either swaps apūrva and adṛṣṭa between the two schools or confuses śreyas with preyas.
