Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option A(मक्खलि गोशाल)
आजीवक संप्रदाय की स्थापना मक्खलि गोसाल ने की थी। यह संप्रदाय प्राचीन भारत में श्रमण परंपरा का एक प्रमुख नास्तिक (अवैदिक) और नियतिवादी दर्शन था। वसुबंधु, उपगुप्त और दिङ्नाग प्रसिद्ध बौद्ध विद्वान और भिक्षु थे।
The Ajivika sect was founded by Makkhali Gosala. It represented a major Shramana heterodox movement in ancient India characterized by strict fatalism. Vasubandhu, Upagupta, and Dignaga, by contrast, were eminent Buddhist philosophers and monks.
