Question

The central concern of Purva Mimamsa is:

A A study of Pramanas
B Understanding the nature of Self
C To understand Dharma
D To prove the existence of god.

Answer & Explanation

Answer: [C]

The central concern of Purva Mimamsa is To understand Dharma.

Purva Mimamsa is one of the six orthodox schools of Hindu philosophy. It focuses on the interpretation and analysis of the Vedas, particularly the ritualistic aspects and the performance of Vedic rituals. The main objective of Purva Mimamsa is to understand and interpret the injunctions (vidhi) and prohibitions (nishedha) laid out in the Vedas, with a particular emphasis on the performance of sacrificial rituals (yajnas) as a means to attain desired outcomes and fulfill one's duties in accordance with Dharma.

While Purva Mimamsa does discuss concepts related to Pramanas (means of knowledge) and may touch upon the nature of the Self, its central concern is primarily to understand Dharma and the proper performance of Vedic rituals.

Therefore, the correct answer is C) To understand Dharma.
