The complete is whom,Who successful in four goals of life.That goals are Dharma
(virtue)Artha(success)Kama(pleasure)Moksha(release).The three life-affirming goals are Dharma (virtue), Artha (success) and Kama (pleasure), while the life-negating goal is that of moksha (release).
The three goals can be pursued all at once or at different times in one's life. Some goals seem more suited to different stages of life than others.
Dharma is the practice of virtue, the living of an ethical and ritually correct life. The definition of what is virtuous, however, varies, depending on a person's possessions.Here dharma means duty .You have to successfully manage your duties ,As a son to father and mohter,as a brother,as a husband to wife ,as a father to your childrens and to the socity as a citizen. dharma a person is expected to fulfill also varies depending on their stage of,life. A student, for instance, becomes virtuous through a different set of actions than a householder.
Artha is the working for and achieving of success, in terms of both wealth and power. This means it is religiously important to be a successful businessman, to sell a lot of carpets for instance, or to manage a successful restaurant. It also means that it is religiously good to serve on the city council, to be active in civic organizations, or even to become a politician. This kind of success is most easily achieved at the householder stage of life.
Kama is pleasure, usually understood as aesthetic pleasure of all kinds. This includes: the producing and enjoyment of art, music, dance, drama, literature, poetry, and sex. (The "Kama Sutra," which may be one of the best known Hindu texts in the West, is about the aesthetic pleasure of men and women; it discusses beauty, music, dance and sexual activity.) It is thus religiously praiseworthy to take part, to support, or just to appreciate any form of pleasure. This should always be done, of course, within the realm of dharma (i.e., in a virtuous manner).
The life's main goal is moksha. It is the striving for release from life .To acheive this, a person must turn their back on life and strive to live without the things that make up life. At first, it requires the turning away from the first three goals, of rejecting family, comforts, pleasure, education, and so on. It also requires one to become an ascetic, a hermit, and to spend one's time in contemplation.
