Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labeled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): Sound is non eternal, because it is caused.
Reason (R): The middle term does not prove the eternality of sound but it's non-eternality.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:नीचे दो कथन दिए गए हैं: एक अभिकथन (Assertion A) के रूप में लिखित है तो दूसरा उसके कारण (Reason R) के रूप में:
अभिकथन (A): 'शब्द अनित्य है, क्योंकि वह कृतक (उत्पन्न) है।'
कारण (R): हेतु (मध्य पद) शब्द की नित्यता को सिद्ध नहीं करता, बल्कि उसकी अनित्यता को सिद्ध करता है।
उपरोक्त कथनों के आलोक में, नीचे दिए गए विकल्पों में से सही उत्तर चुनिए:

Correct answer: A. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)(A) और (R) दोनों सही हैं और (R), (A) की सही व्याख्या है
Explanation
'Sound is non-eternal because it is caused (kritakatva)' is the standard Nyaya anumana, and it is a sound inference — (A) is true. The hetu 'being caused' is invariably concomitant with non-eternality (whatever is produced perishes), so it establishes non-eternality and not eternality — (R) is true and it states exactly why (A) holds. Hence both are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).'शब्द अनित्य है क्योंकि वह कृतक है' न्याय दर्शन का मानक अनुमान है और यह वैध है — अतः (A) सत्य है। हेतु 'कृतकत्व' की व्याप्ति अनित्यत्व के साथ है (जो उत्पन्न होता है वह नष्ट होता है), इसलिए वह अनित्यता सिद्ध करता है, नित्यता नहीं — अतः (R) भी सत्य है और वही (A) का कारण है। इसलिए दोनों सही और (R), (A) की सही व्याख्या है।More Logical Reasoning questions
