The correct answer is (c) Nagasena.
Nagasena was a Buddhist monk who lived in the 3rd century BCE. He is best known for his debates with King Milinda, which are recorded in the Milinda Panha. The Milinda Panha is a Pali text that is considered to be one of the most important texts in Theravada Buddhism.
The Milinda Panha is a dialogue between King Milinda and Nagasena. The king is a non-Buddhist who is seeking to understand Buddhism. Nagasena is a Buddhist monk who is skilled in debate. The dialogue covers a wide range of topics, including the nature of reality, the nature of the self, and the nature of suffering.
The Milinda Panha is an important text because it provides a glimpse into the early development of Buddhism. It also provides a valuable record of the Buddhist teachings as they were understood in the 3rd century BCE.
The other options are incorrect. (a) Ananda was the Buddha’s attendant. (b) Ashvaghosh was a Sanskrit poet and dramatist. (d) None of the above is the correct answer.
