Choose the correct order of the stages of life according to pratityasamutpada of Buddhism :
Vedana, Upadana, Bhava and Jati
Pratityasamutpada (dependent origination) is the Buddha's twelve-linked chain (dvadasa nidana) explaining how suffering arises: avidya → samskara → vijnana → namarupa → sadayatana → sparsa → vedana → trsna → upadana → bhava → jati → jaramarana.
Vedana (feeling) arises from sparsa (contact); feeling gives rise to trsna (craving), and craving to upadana (clinging or grasping).
Upadana in turn produces bhava (the will to become, the karmic force of becoming), and bhava leads to jati (birth), which is followed by old age and death.
So among the four links given, the correct sequence is Vedana first, then Upadana, then Bhava and finally Jati. Every other arrangement puts Bhava or Jati before Vedana, which reverses the causal chain.
Hence, the answer is Vedana, Upadana, Bhava and Jati.
