LEARNINGÂ HINDU DHARMA / HINDUISM(Series)
Ultimate aim of Hindu dharma is to experience the bad and good of life through four purushaarthas known as
1. dharma ( living a dharmic life)
2. Artha ( prospering through dharmic pathway)
3. Kaama ( enjoying the life in a dharmic pathway)Â
4. Moksha (relinquishing  from the desires / attractions / cravings, etc of the normal life.)
So the ultimate aim of life is to experience the life, doing good and elevating the body through saathwic food, elevating the mind through saatwic thoughts and elevating the soul through saatwic karma / actions.
