Abstract

In Sushruta’s view, they are 24 in number and originate from nabhi. of them, the adhogadhamanis are principle in carrying the nutrient fluid to different parts of the body. Through this article, an effort is made to clarify the mode of transport and nourishment to different tissues, keeping the three nyayas (maxims) in view, viz.,kedarakulyanyaya, upasnehana and abhinavajalalavasy and anyaya. This facilitates an easier understanding of the actual process of transport of nutrition, which in turn will make the concept useable in day to day practice, in the effort of correcting the dhatuvaishamya.
