Concept of Srotas from Ayurvedic Perspective with Special Reference to Neurology
Journal Title: International Journal of Allied Medical Sciences and Clinical Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Ayurveda is a life science. The researchers of ayurveda could rule out the presence of srotas (channels) spreading throughout the human body. These srotas (channels) are governed by vayu which is using all the srotas (channels) of the body to carry out the functional and physiological activities of the human body without which the human society will not exist. Several synonymous words have been described by the ayurvedicacharyas for srotas. Some are micro and some are macro in structures and they adopt the same colour of the particular dhatus of the body to which it belongs. The aim of the study is to justify that srotas are nothing but innumerable channels or pathways of the nervous system governed by electric current without which no functional and physiological activities of the human body will develope.
