Living in Mrityu Lok means living in the "realm of death" or the "world of mortals" in Hinduism, essentially referring to the Earth where all living beings experience death as a natural part of life; it is the plane of mortality where our physical bodies exist and eventually perish. Concept of rebirth in Hinduism is that after death in Mrityu Lok, the soul moves on to other realms based on their karma, eventually returning to the cycle of life through rebirth
From Get Rid of Rebirth in This Mrityu Lok, In Gita There are Four Specific Terms Given. By Which We Go Free Forever From This and Start Living with the Lord in "Vaikunth Dham".

Artha, (Sanskrit: “wealth,” or “property”), the pursuit of wealth or material advantage, one of the four traditional aims in life.
