C) 1 and 3
D) None of these
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
[b] The school of Mimamsa consists of both atheistic and theistic doctrines and is not deeply interested in the existence of God, put rather in the character of dharma. Charvaka was a philosophy of scepticism and materialism. Charvaka deemed vedas to be tainted by the three faults of untruth, self-contradiction and tautology. Kapila is the founder of the Samkhya philosophy, it regards the universe as consisting of two realities; Purusa and Prakriti Samkhya philosophy denies the final cause as God.
