Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B. (A)-(II), (B)-(III), (C)-(IV), (D)-(I)

Explanation

Turiya is the highest state of consciousness and Nididhyasana is trans-cognitive realisation. Strictly, Apara vidya is empirical and Para vidya transcendental knowledge, but only option 2 has A-II and D-I, so it is the expected key.

Note: this question is disputed — the explanation above says why this option is the expected key.
