Abstract
Ayurvedic classics proclaim Srotasa as the system of channels designed as biological transport system performing divergent functions. Indeed, it is a generic term indicating all the macro and micro channels and pathways operat- ing in the living organism. Broadly Srotasa are classified in two categories: Bahirmukha and Antarmukha. Ar- tavavaha Srotasa is enumerated as one of the Antarmukha Srotasa by Sushruta, playing an important role in transformation of Artava and Artava Chakra, and Garbhotpatti, having Garbhasaya and Artavavahi Dhamani as its Moolasthana.
