B. The pilgrim is asking for the meaning of life. The tip off is when he asked the wise man. The rising sun is often used to represent meaning of life.

Answer: B. search for the meaning of life.

Step-by-step explanation: In the given passage we can see a pilgrim asking a scholar, a sailor or a wise man from the skies to tell him where is the place called "morning". Based on that information we can infer that the passage reveals the theme of searching for the meaning of life, when he asks for where the place called "Morning" lies, he is asking "the wise man from the skies" for the meaning of his life.
