B.Only jñāna and bhakti
C.Only satya and ahiṃsā
D.Dharma, artha, kāma, and mokṣa

3Astika (āstika) schools of Indian philosophy are traditionally those that:
A.Deny any possibility of knowledge
B.Identify exclusively with modern Western materialism
C.Accept the authority of the Vedas

B.Cārvāka, Buddhism, and Jainism
C.Nyāya, Vaiśeṣika, and Sāṃkhya only

A.Only agricultural techniques
B.Only military strategy
C.Logic, debate, and means of knowledge (pramāṇas)

Explanation: Vaiśeṣika analyzes reality into padārthas (categories), classically including substance (dravya), quality (guṇa), action (karma), generality (sāmānya), particularity (viśeṣa), and inherence (samavāya); later lists often add abhāva (non-existence).

B.Only God and Satan as in some Abrahamic dualisms
