Everything about Artha totally explained
Artha (
Devanagari: अर्थ) is a
Sanskrit term meaning "purpose, cause, motive, meaning, notion".
It may refer to the idea of material prosperity. In
Hinduism, artha is one of the four goals of life, known as
purusharthas. It is considered to be a noble goal as long as it follows the dictates of
Vedic morality. The concept includes achieving widespread fame, garnering wealth and having an elevated social standing. It is the second lowest rung on the ladder of purusharthas, above
kama (physical or emotional pleasure) but below
dharma (righteousness) and
moksha (salvation).
Artha is one of the dharmas (duties) of a person in the third stage of life, the householder stage, and during this a person must accumulate as much wealth as possible, without being greedy, to help and support his family.
