B Correct answer
Explanation

If A begins the sequence, C hangs loose and we won’t be able to fit it anywhere in the sequence, therefore, C begins the sequence. 'As such' in D provides a direct link to 'the discussion' in C, therefore C → D. 'Fundamental departure' in B refers to 'new Hinduism' in A, thus A → B. This makes (2), the correct option.
