Which of the following is the same as 'Durga', 'Kali', 'Saraswati' — i.e., select another Hindu goddess from the options.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Laxmi

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
The given names Durga, Kali, and Saraswati are Hindu goddesses. The task is to select another goddess from the options while rejecting deities of other gender or non-deity terms.



Given Data / Assumptions:

  • We aim to preserve the category 'Hindu goddess'.
  • Options include male deities and a non-deity word.
  • Choose the feminine deity name consistent with the set.


Concept / Approach:
'Laxmi' (Lakshmi) is a Hindu goddess (wealth and prosperity). 'Ganesh' and 'Shiv' are male deities; 'Worship' is an action/concept. Therefore, 'Laxmi' alone preserves the class 'Hindu goddesses'.



Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Identify the set as Hindu goddesses.2) From options, select the goddess name.3) 'Laxmi' matches; others do not.



Verification / Alternative check:
Standard lists: Lakshmi, Durga, Kali, Saraswati, Parvati are goddesses; Ganesh and Shiva are gods.



Why Other Options Are Wrong:

  • Ganesh/Shiv: Male deities.
  • Worship: Concept/action, not a deity.
  • None of these: Incorrect because 'Laxmi' fits.


Common Pitfalls:
Overlooking gender of deities in analogy sets. Focus on the precise category.



Final Answer:
Laxmi
