Ashrama
In Hinduism, human life is believed to comprise four stages. These are called "ashramas" and every man should ideally go through each of these stages:

The First Ashrama - "Brahmacharya" or the Student Stage

The Second Ashrama - "Grihastha" or the Householder Stage

The Third Ashrama - "Vanaprastha" or the Hermit Stage

The Fourth Ashrama - "Sannyasa" or the Wandering Ascetic Stage
