Cardemaister I think the Veda is funning you. The idea is that first you have a career dharma. From that you accumulate wealth artha. Because of the wealth you enjoy material comforts and pleasures kama. And then LOL you decide to renounce it all moksha.

To split hairs, there seems to be no such word as 'kama' in Sanskrit But there are words kamaa (fem.), loveliness, beauty kaama (masc.), desire, etc. The order above seems counter-intuitive, IMO. One might expect: kaama, artha, dharma, mokSa; or even: kaama, dharma, artha, mokSa?? Just for fun: in Finnish, 'kama' means 'rubbish, junk' (also drugs), LoL! >
