Which of the above statements is/are correct?
✅ Correct Answer: B
🎯 Quick Answer:
Statements 1 and 3 are correct. There is a dichotomy between the two visions, and Kalam was taught to understand the difference.Structural Breakdown: The philosophy outlines the "wrong" path (fear-ridden vision, blaming external destiny) versus the "right" path (seeking the internal enemy of fulfillment). Historical/Related Context: This philosophical framework is essential for understanding Kalam's later success; he learned early on to reject victimhood (fear-ridden destiny) and instead take personal accountability for his internal flaws and external failures.
Causal Reasoning: Statement 2 is incorrect because the fear-ridden vision paralyzes people with superstition and fear; it does not empower them.
The empowering vision is the one that seeks the internal enemy.
