Answer :

Answer:

The young woman in this passage is primarily following the purusartha of Artha, which pertains to fulfilling material needs and security. She is making money to support herself and her children by selling fruits, and she is saving some of her income for future emergencies, which demonstrates her focus on achieving financial security. While she spends some of her money on necessities such as food and clothes for her family, this is done within the context of providing for their needs rather than simply indulging in pleasure (Kama) or seeking liberation from the cycle of rebirth (Moksha).
