The correct answer is Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A
Important PointsThe given Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are based on concepts in Hindu philosophy:

  • Sruti: These are revealed texts and include the Vedas and Upanishads. Sruti texts are considered to be of divine origin and have primary authority in Hindu tradition.
  • Smriti: These are remembered texts and include works like the Mahabharata, Ramayana, and the Dharma Shastras. Smritis are considered of human authorship and are secondary to Sruti in terms of authority.

Given this context, we can analyze the statements:

  • Assertion A: True, as in traditional Hindu thought, if there is a contestation between Sruti and Smriti, Sruti is considered to have higher authority.
  • Reason R: True, as Sruti represents the fundamental, eternal truths, while Smriti is a derivation or application of these principles.

The correct answer is:

  • Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • The reason given does explain why Sruti prevails over Smriti, as Sruti is considered to hold the fundamental philosophical truths, while Smriti is seen as an application or interpretation of these principles.
