Artha is a term used in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism to describe one of the four goals of human life. Simply, it refers to the "means or purpose of life." However, its meaning can vary depending on the context.
Artha can be understood as an attitude and capability that helps us sustain ourselves, thrive, and maintain our freedom. It encompasses economic prosperity, personal security, and good health for oneself and those we are responsible for. Essentially, it includes everything in our surroundings that supports our livelihood.
It is important to note that artha is not an ultimate destination or an endless pursuit of amassing wealth without purpose. Instead, it is best described as the pursuit of activities and resources necessary for a joyful and fulfilling life.
Project Artha aims to empower young women by equipping them with the necessary skills to practice artha throughout their lives. Our volunteers embark on mission trips to schools in India, where they teach a comprehensive curriculum on financial literacy. Our commitment doesn't end with these trips, we maintain an ongoing relationship with our students, supporting them as they navigate adulthood.
