Answer 2

The correct answer is option (a) Patanjali.

• Patañjali, also known as Gonardiya, or Gonikaputra, was an ancient Indian scholar. Very little is known about him, and no one knows exactly when he lived; although, according to his analysis of the works, it was between the 4th and 5th centuries CE.
• He is believed to be the author and coordinator of a number of Sanskrit books. The Greatest Yoga Sutras, an ancient yoga practice. There is speculation as to whether the Patañjali magician is the author of all the books which he is said to have written as there are a number of well-known historians with the same name. A major scholarship was awarded 100 years ago on the subject of history or the identity of this author or writer.
