Answer:

E) the superiority of the Portuguese navy over English and Dutch forces.

Explanation:

In the early 16th century, two countries of Europe had ventured far away to try to find new trade routes to India and Asia: Spain and Portugal. Without knowing it, Spain had discovered for Europe a new continent, and Portuguese sailors managed to circumnavigate Africa. English and Dutch maritime expeditions with trade purposes took place at a later time.

vlada-n [284]

Samsara, the term for the entire cycle of rebirth, includes lives marked by ongoing serial attachments and is cyclical with no discernible beginning or conclusion.

<h3></h3><h3>What are the salient features of Hindu views on samsara?</h3>

It is the perpetual cycle of conception, mortality, and rebirth. When the soul is released from the cycle of reincarnation, samsara comes to an end.

The idea of Sara has roots in post-Vedic literature; the Vedas themselves do not explain the subject. The earliest Upanishads have it in a sophisticated form but without mechanical details.
