[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

Yes, (C) spiritual explanation is the right answer. The witch doctor in this scenario is using a spiritual explanation of the psychological disorder. According to this belief system, Rani's symptoms are attributed to being possessed by the spirit of a demon wolf. The witch doctor believes that in order to cure Rani, he must undergo an exorcism to remove the spirit. This spiritual explanation is rooted in the tribe's cultural and religious beliefs, which view mental and physical illnesses as manifestations of spiritual forces. It is important to note that while this explanation may be true within the cultural context of the tribe, it does not align with scientific or medical explanations of psychological disorders.
