      Hari Om!

      Could you please clarify my doubts
      Referring to the 2nd question, why are the mentioned options correct?
      2. The tree of saṁsāra is difficult to cut because:
      a. Its nature is not easily available for comprehension.
      b. Its beginning, middle and end are not seen.

      My Point of view: Samsara is comprehensible as opposed to Supreme consciousness, as it undergoes modifications and has a beginning and ending which can be seen(option 2), just like the birth and death of the Jiva, unlike the Supreme Lord, who doesn’t have birth, death, and modifications, which is hard to comprehend. That’s why we were told to cultivate viveka and vairagya through detachment. Please correct me if I am wrong.

      My Next Question: Why the mentioned option is wrong?

      Which of the following statements are true regarding Chapter 15?
      a.) It deals with the topic of the three guṇas – It’s already mentioned in the chapter
      Nirmānamohāḥ – Tamas
      Jitasaṅgadośāḥ – Rajas
      Adhyātmanityāḥ – Sattva

      For question 13:

      13. Which of the following statements is true regarding the supreme State?
      Jiva is identical to the Supreme Lord

      Even though the Supreme Lord resides in all (Jivas) or the source of all. Jivas are perishable, whereas the Supreme Lord is Imperishable, which differentiates the two.

      Please let me know if my perception is different on these.

      Thank you!
