C
Correct answer
Explanation
The four ashrams follow a sequential cycle: Brahmacharya (student) → Grihastha (householder) → Vanaprastha (gradual withdrawal) → Sannyasa (complete renunciation). Vanaprastha is the penultimate (second last) stage, where one begins to detach from worldly affairs before total renunciation.
