inducement for the individual to ripen, to become something in himself, to become world, to become world in himself for the sake of another person; it is a great, demanding claim on him, something that chooses him and calls him to vast distances. Only in this sense, as the task of working on themselves (“to hearken and to hammer day and night”), may young people use the love that is given to them. Merging and surrendering and every kind of communion is not for them (who must still, for a long, long time, save and gather themselves); it is the ultimate, is perhaps that for which human lives are as yet barely large enough.

(a)कोणत्याही हेतूशिवाय वा ध्येयाशिवाय कोणीही दुसऱ्या व्यक्तीवर प्रेम करू शकत नाही. / one cannot love another person without any purpose or aim.

(b)ते प्रेमाची अंतिम परीक्षा आहे ज्याच्यासाठी प्रत्येक व्यक्तीला इतर सर्व कामे करून स्वतःला तयार करावे लागते. / it is the final examination for which human being prepares oneself after doing all other tasks.

(c)ते शिकायला खूप वेळ लागतो आणि धीर धरून चिकाटीने काम करत राहणे कठीण असते. / it takes a long time to learn it and it is difficult to work with courage and perseverance.

(d)त्यासाठी व्यक्तीला स्वतःच्या सर्व शक्ती एकवटाव्या लागतात व इतर कामे करण्याचे कष्ट करावे लागतात. / it requires a person to gather all his/her energies and strive for completing all other tasks.

1)फक्त ब / b only

2)ब आणि क / b and c

3)अ वगळता सर्व / All but a✓ Correct

4)क आणि ड / c and d

Based on passages discussing the art of loving (often Erich Fromm's philosophy), loving is difficult because it requires mastery, concentration, patience, and supreme energy (b, c, and d are true). Statement 'a' is incorrect because love can exist as an orientation without a rigid ulterior purpose or aim.
