In the philosophy of the Vedanta, matter is not an entity isolated from the realm of eternity but is merely
an appearance of the Eternal through space, time and causation. The activities of the material world are
all consciously directed towards the fulfillment of the cosmic purpose of Self-realisation. Matter is not an
unwilling self but a willing cooperator in the grand scheme of the cosmos. Matter appears to be an
impediment when the Spirit is forgotten, but when one consciously and deliberately puts forth efforts
towards the realisation of the Spirit in one's own self, one would discover that the material universe
becomes a stepping stone in the process of this grand ascent.
(A)The material pursuits are a stepping stone to the ultimate realization of self.
(B)There is but a thin line of demarcation between the inert and the alert, and ultimately both are a pre-requisite to the fulfillment of the real purpose in life
(C)Though material universe is not eternal, the spirit and the cosmic purpose are.
(D)In the realm of Vedanta, material world is part of the grand scheme of things in which selfrealisation is the ultimate purpose.
(E)Vedanta defines matter as the expression of the spirit through space, time and causation.
The ans is D.
