The term 'Vasu' stands for the number
Answer: B
The term 'vasu' stands for the number eight in the system of bhuta sankhya, where a word stands for a number. There are eight Vasus in the Vedic and Puranic texts, and so vasu is used for eight. Seven, nine and ten are the numbers for other words of the same system, for example the rishis (seven) and the planets (nine), not for vasu. The keyed answer is eight. The other familiar words of the system are the rishis (seven), the grahas or planets (nine) and the directions (ten), which are the numbers in the other options.
