The sage did not want to be bothered with mundane concerns.
EnglishSynonyms
- Aworldly
- Bmeaningless
- Ctrivial
- Dsuperfluous
Explanation
'Mundane' means of this earthly world as opposed to the heavenly or spiritual. 'Worldly' means concerned with material, ordinary life rather than spiritual existence — the same contrast. 'Meaningless', 'trivial', and 'superfluous' suggest unimportance, a different sense of 'mundane' not intended here. Hence option (A) is correct.
