Q1Fill in the blank in the following verse: Sahasraśīrṣā _____ sahasrākṣaḥ sahasrapāt. Sa bhūmiṃ viśvato vṛtvātyatiṣṭhad daśāṅgulam.

A Indraḥ
B Puruṣaḥ
C Viṣṇuḥ
D Varuṇaḥ
Explanation

Option B is correct. This well-known verse from the Purusha Sukta begins, ‘Sahasraśīrṣā puruṣaḥ sahasrākṣaḥ sahasrapāt.’ Therefore, puruṣaḥ completes the blank. Substituting Indraḥ, Viṣṇuḥ, or Varuṇaḥ would alter the accepted wording of the verse.
