artha kama

Artha is not only money but also to get a sense of security.
Kama is not only desire, but also enjoyment of pleasure.

These two are common for every jeeva, whether it is from human race or animal kingdom.

Artha and Kama are for materialistic society. Have all luxuries but eternal happiness is elusive without Dharma and Moksha.

There are three significant elements in the process and they are:

1. Understanding the fundamentals or essentials of life -- i.e., ability
2. Ability to look at life in a holistic view -- i.e., depth in view and understanding.
3. Understand the real nature of real life -- Cardinal principle of spirituality - Who am I?

Knowledge of Purushartha helps us in decision making. Life is full of choices and their implementation. To make right decision, the goal has to be clear. The quality of Purushartha depends on the quality of choices. A gradation of Purushartha is necessary to arrive at a decision.

1. Dharma is the Pradhana or Primary Purushartha. It is the foundation of life. Adhere to Dharma, which will, in turn, protect us. Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitaha.
2. Mokha is the Parama or the Ultimate Purushartha.
3. Artha and Kama are only instrumental Purusharthas.

One should pursue Ardha and Kama according to Dharma ONLY to get Moksha.

Even Marriage is streamlining Kama according to Dharma.

Moksha is total freedom from bondage.

I hope I am clear.

Love and Love alone....

moksha

"Moksha" is the highest PURUSHARTHA=accomplishment of our body after fulfilling the other purushartha in the life per scriptures.
Nandji, you are partly right about Paramartha. By doing help and thinking about others, we are offered Grace= Kripa from the Lord.
Without Kripa, we will never be able to consumate or have the fruits of all our Karma from Time immemorial. In fact we do not have the fruits of all these Karma, He is so much merciful that He pardons all Karma and then only we have this State of Mind , Moksha and when we leave this body, He will take us to His abode for eternal service. We will not merge never into the Lord, yet we will enjoy more than Atma-Sakshahtakar

about lord krishna

Krishna is the eight incarnation of lord Vishnu and was born in the Dvarpara Yuga as the "dark one". Krishna is the embodiment of love and divine joy, that destroys all pain and sin. Krishna is the protector of sacred utterances and cows. Krishna is a trickster and lover, an instigator of all forms of knowledge and born to establish the religion of love.

Krishna was born as the 8th child of Devaki, sister of the cruel demon king Kamsa. The sage Narada had predicted that Kamsa would be killed by his nephew, so the king killed Devaki´s first six children. The 7th, Balarama escaped and the 8th, Krishna, was secretly exchanged for a cowherds daughter.
Krishna was brought up in a cowherds family. As a child, Krishna had great love for his foster-mother Yashoda.
Later Krishna loved to play the flute and to seduce the village girls. Krishna is the deity of Hasya or Humour and a messenger of peace. His favorite was Rada. This is known as the Krishna Leela.
After Krishna killed Kamsa, he became king. In the great Mahabaratha epic, Krishna spoke memorable words on the essence of Bhakti Yoga or the Yoga of Devotion. They are at the centre of the Bhagavad Gita.
