The Four Purusharthas: Goals of Human Existence

Hindu philosophy outlines four main goals of human life, known as the Purusharthas:

Dharma is considered the foundation upon which the other three goals rest. Without dharma, the pursuit of wealth, pleasure, or even spiritual liberation can lead one astray.
