Statement II:The jar will exist refers to previous non-existence.

BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
CStatement I is true but Statement II is false
DStatement I is false but Statement II is true
Correct answer: (A) Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Explanation
Both statements are true about the kinds of non-existence (abhava).
The bare form the jar does not exist fits every type of negation equally.
The jar will exist points to the state before production, which is prior non-existence (pragabhava).
Pragabhava is the not-yet-produced condition that ends once the object comes to be.
Both descriptions of negation are therefore accurate.
