Correct Answerसही उत्तर
D. PuriD. पुरी
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Puri.
According to the source, Govardhan Math, also written in the explanation as Govardhana Peetham, is one of the four cardinal peethams established by the 8th-century philosopher-saint Adi Shankara to preserve and propagate Sanatana Dharma.
The book states that it is located in Puri, Orissa.
Therefore the complete source-supported revision chain is: Govardhan Math
Govardhana Peetham — Puri — Orissa — one of Four Cardinal Peethams — established by Adi Shankara — 8th Century Philosopher-Saint according to source — purpose: preserve and propagate Sanatana Dharma.
Badrinath, Dwarka and Sringeri are distractors in this question.
The source uses the spelling 'Orissa', which has been preserved rather than silently modernised in the explanation.
It does not list the other three peethams in this entry.
Quick revision: Govardhan Math = Puri = one of four cardinal peethams established by Adi Shankara according to source.
Therefore option (d), Puri, is correct.
सही उत्तर Puri है। स्रोत के अनुसार Govardhan Math, जिसे explanation में Govardhana Peetham भी लिखा गया है, four cardinal peethams में से एक है जिन्हें 8th-century philosopher-saint Adi Shankara ने Sanatana Dharma को preserve और propagate करने के लिए established किया था। Book इसे Puri, Orissa में located बताती है। इसलिए complete source-supported revision chain है: Govardhan Math/Govardhana Peetham — Puri — Orissa — Four Cardinal Peethams में से एक — Adi Shankara — 8th Century Philosopher-Saint — Sanatana Dharma का Preservation और Propagation। Badrinath, Dwarka और Sringeri distractors हैं। Source 'Orissa' spelling use करती है, जिसे preserve किया गया है। Source इस entry में बाकी तीन peethams की list नहीं देती। Quick revision: Govardhan Math = Puri = Adi Shankara के Four Cardinal Peethams में से एक। इसलिए विकल्प (d) सही उत्तर है।
