Answer:

The Answer is A: They felt divided from Hindu priests and gods.

Explanation:

Hinduism had been in India for a long time before the Mauryan Empire. Hindu priests spoke Sanskrit when they conducted sacrifices. Not many Indian people spoke Sanskrit at this time. This caused a divide between the priests and the people. The people felt distant from the gods. As a result, many turned to Buddhism.
