Ashram System
The Ashram System is a traditional framework in Indian society that categorizes life into four stages, known as Ashramas. These stages are Brahmacharya (student life), Grihastha (householder life), Vanaprastha (hermit stage), and Sannyasa (renounced life). Each stage has specific duties and responsibilities, guiding individuals in their spiritual and social development.
The system emphasizes the importance of personal growth and societal contribution at different life stages. It encourages individuals to pursue knowledge, family life, and ultimately, spiritual liberation, aligning with the broader goals of Dharma (righteousness) and Moksha (liberation).
