Grihastha (Householder)
The term "Grihastha" refers to the second stage of life in the traditional Hindu life cycle, known as the Ashrama system. This stage is characterized by the responsibilities of a householder, including marriage, family life, and the pursuit of a career. Grihasthas are expected to provide for their families, uphold social duties, and contribute to the community.
During this phase, individuals focus on fulfilling their Dharma (moral and ethical duties) while also seeking Artha (wealth) and Kama (pleasure). The Grihastha stage is essential for personal growth and societal stability, as it emphasizes the importance of family and community engagement.
