Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Anyonyābhāva means mutual non-existence, where one thing is different from another thing. Hence, “This is not that” represents Anyonyābhāva.

Atyantābhāva means absolute non-existence, where something never exists at any time or place. “Hare’s horn” is the classic example of absolute non-existence.

Prāgabhāva means prior non-existence or the absence of a thing before its creation. Therefore, it represents the temporary absence of a thing.

Pradhvamsābhāva means posterior non-existence, which occurs after the destruction of an object. Hence, “there is non-existence of the jar now” represents Pradhvamsābhāva.

Therefore, the correct matching is:

(A) Anyonyābhāva → (III) This is not that
(B) Atyantābhāva → (I) Hare’s horn
(C) Prāgabhāva → (IV) Temporary absence of a thing
(D) Pradhvamsābhava → (II) there is non-existence of the jar now

Correct Answer: A–III, B–I, C–IV, D–II
