Abstract
According describes ‘Srotamayam hi shariram’ means human living body is channel or encompassed of various channels or system. The body contains numerous channels through which the dhatus, doshas and malas circulate, known as strotas in Ayurveda. Srotas are called as ‘sravana’ (oozing), as it allows materials to pass through them very slowly. These channels consist of both gross channels, such as the intestinal tract, lymphatic system, arteries, veins, and the genitor-urinary tracts etc. Srotas, in broad term refers to the channels of circulation present in the human body. Anatomically and physiologically, channels of circulation have great importance. Anatomically, the channels of circulation are distinct from blood vessels including arteries, veins and capillaries and are omnipresent in the human body. Siravyadha has been one of the most used procedures amongst various methods described in classical Surgery. Raktavahastrotas originate from the Yakrita (liver) and Pliha (spleen). The chief function of Raktavahastrotas is transportation of Rakta (blood) to the Rakta dhatu. From physiological point of view, channels of circulation are primarily responsible for the circulation of three biological humors, tissues and waste-products to organs and organelles.
