The correct answer is A) government should be divided into three branches: executive, legislative, and judicial.

The statement that accurately summarizes an idea of French Enlightenment philosopher Baron de Montesquieu is "government should be divided into three branches: executive, legislative, and judicial.

Baron de Montesquieu (1689-1755) probably was one of the most important philosophers and thinkers of politics during the Enlightenment years. He is worldwide known for its great piece of work called "The Spirit of Laws," in which he elaborates about the form of government. This book has greatly influenced many other thinkers and politicians around the globe.

In this book, he expressed the idea of the division of powers, in which a government should be divided into three branches: executive, legislative, and judicial. In the case of the US, the executive is the President; the Legislative is the Congress; and the Judicial, the Supreme Court.

Is there not a question though?

Answer from: Quest

atman means 'eternal self'. the atman refers to the real self beyond ego or false self. it is often referred to as 'spirit' or 'soul' and indicates our true self or essence which underlies our existence.

there are many interesting perspectives on the self in hinduism ranging from the self as eternal servant of god to the self as being identified with god. the understanding of the self as eternal supports the idea of reincarnation in that the same eternal being can inhabit temporary bodies.

the idea of atman entails the idea of the self as a spiritual rather than material being and thus there is a strong dimension of hinduism which emphasises detachment from the material world and promotes practices such as asceticism. thus it could be said that in this world, a spiritual being, the atman, has a human experience rather than a human being having a spiritual experience.
