Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option D(चार्वाकों की)
यह प्रसिद्ध उक्ति भारतीय दर्शन की भौतिकवादी (जड़वादी) परंपरा 'चार्वाक' (लोकायत दर्शन) की है: 'यावज्जीवेत् सुखं जीवेत् ऋणं कृत्वा घृतं पिबेत्। भस्मीभूतस्य देहस्य पुनरागमनं कुतः॥' चार्वाक दर्शन परलोक, पुनर्जन्म, पाप-पुण्य और ईश्वर के अस्तित्व को सिरे से नकारता है।
This famous verse represents the radical materialist and hedonist doctrine of the Charvaka (Lokayata) school: 'As long as you live, live happily; drink ghee even if you incur debts; once the physical body is reduced to ashes, how can it ever return?' Charvakas completely rejected karma, rebirth, heaven, and spiritual afterlife.
