A) Gautam
B) Alara Kalama
C) Asanga
D) Sudharman
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Alara Kalama was a hermit saint and a teacher of yogic meditation who lived near Rajgriha. He was one of the teachers of Gautama Buddha. Under Alara Kalama Gautama, Buddha practised austerities. Alara taught Gautama Buddha many things including meditation. Arya Asanga was born in the year 3 75 AD in Purushapura, India (present day Pakistan). He was perhaps originally a member of the Mahisasaka school or the Mulasarvastivada school but later converted to Mahayana. According to some scholars, Asanga's frameworks for Abhidharma writings retained many underlying MahTsasaka traits. Sudharmaswami (607 BC - 507 BC) was the fifth Ganadhara of Mahavira. All the current Jain acharyas and monks follow his rule.
