TERM was probably COINED by Pythagoras.Assertion: Indian Philosophy has been intensely spiritual and has always emphasized the need for PRACTICAL realization of truth.Explanation:Indian philosophy refers to philosophical traditions that were developed in the Indian subcontinent.Modern scholars generally divide the field between "Hindu Philosophy" (also known as "Brahmanical Philosophy") and non-Hindu traditions such as Buddhist Philosophy and Jain Philosophy. This division is generally derived from traditional Indian classifications.Indian philosophical texts include extensive discussions on ontology (metaphysics, Brahman-Atman, Sunyata-Anatta), reliable means of knowledge (epistemology, pramana), ethics (which is often influenced by the Indian idea of karma), value system (axiology), and other topics.Thus, Indian Philosophy has been intensely spiritual and has always emphasized the need for practical realization of the truth. The assertion is correct.Reason: The word 'Darshana' means 'vision' and also the INSTRUMENT of vision which stands for the direct immediate and intuitive vision of Reality and also includes the means which lead to this realization.Explanation:From the Indian viewpoint, Philosophy or ‘darshana’ is concerned with the vision of ‘truth and reality’.The Sanskrit word ‘darshana’ has its root in the word ‘drs’ that means ‘to see’, ‘to look’ or ‘to view’. “SEEING” or “viewing” the reality and the facts of experience forms the basis of philosophy.Senses, mind, and even consciousness are involved in this ‘seeing’.“Seeing” also encompasses “contemplation”. Seeing is not simply a sensory activity.‘Seeing’ may primarily be a perceptual observation. But it may also concern the conceptual knowledge or an intuitional flash.The word 'darshana' means 'vision' and also the instrument of vision which stands for the direct immediate and intuitive vision of Reality and also includes the means which lead to this realization. Thus, the reason is correct.Indian Philosophy has been intensely spiritual and has always emphasized the need for practical realization of truth. One of the ways for practical realization of truth is 'Darshana'. Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A. Thus, option 1 is the correct answer.
