tri-varga and its opposite

We have understood that artha is meaningful livelihood for an individual and the society in the last post. The intention of the SAsta is to provide the technique (i.e, upAya) to acquire and maintain the artha.

The artha is not alone. It goes closely with "dharma" and "kAma". Dharma precedes artha and kAma succeeds it. So, the triad of dharma-artha-kAma, I translate as Orderly-Meaningful-Fulfillment of human purpose!

cANakya concludes his SAstra:

धर्ममर्थं च कामं च प्रवर्तयति पाति च ।
अधर्मानर्थविद्वेषानिदं शास्त्रम् निहन्ति च ॥

dharmam, artham, ca, kAmam ca pravartayati pAti ca; adharma, anartha, vidvEshan, idam, SAstram, nihanti, ca. 

It is not only promoting and protecting the the tri-varga; Proper study and implementation of this SAstra eliminates disorderly (adharmam) -meaningless (anartham) - conflicts (vidvEshA) seen in the individuals and societies.

So, the SAstra prayOjana i.e, purpose of this SAstra is not just acquiring and maintaining mere livelihood of individuals and societies. It is providing a proper order, meaning and fulfillment to them.

This is only possible with a holistic system. Not with a combination of corrupted political system and greedy economical system trying to regulate each other with a powerless judiciary sub-system.
