Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e., 1.
The error lies in the 1st part of the sentence as “to be” is used here so the gerund form of the verb is incorrect to use.
To be+ past participle verb is called passive infinitive and is used to focus on the receiver.
Hence, “blessing” should be replaced with “blessed”.
The correct sentence will be- Our sole prayer should be to be blessed with a spiritual awakening that is the real source of peace, bliss and contentment.
