- 1. SROTAS PREPARED BY: PAKHI SHARMA,58 BATCH 21 GUIDED BY: DR. SHUBHA R. SONDOOR (HOD RN&VV)
- 2. CONTENTS • Introduction • Paryaya •Structure • Pramukhyata • Sroto dushti prakara • Classification along with individual Sroto viddha lakshana
- 3. INTRODUCTION The physiological andanatomical pathways that carry all the components, elements, signals, and reflexes come under Srotas. There are many kinds of srotas and every srotas has its moolsthana from where transportation or transmission begins and its prabhav sthana where transported matter finally reaches its destiny and performs its functions. Srotas carry dosha, dhatu, upadhatu and mala in it. Hence, dosha dushti can produce Sroto dushti and vice-versa. We will now study srotas from the POV of Roga Nidana. Classical references “स्रवणात् स्त्रोताम्सि।” (च.सूत्र. 30/12) It is the path that helps with the transformation of a substance.
- 4. • There aremany types of srotas as many as corporeal entities. All (corporeal) entities do not arise or decay without srotas. Srotas are defined as transporting passages of dhatus transforming. • Channels that carry transformed dhatus to different destinations through the network to nourish the cells and tissues. • Srotas may be defined as empty spaces spread to the entire body which originates from root space except sira and dhamani. • Acarya Caraka in Srotovimana’ adhyaya of Vimanasthana also tells us that some hold that the person is only an aggregate of srotas because of their pervasiveness and diffusiveness of agents and pacifying dosas. This is not so because which srotas belong to, which they carry, nourish and where they are situated all are different from the srotas themselves. Some say that srotas are innumerable because they are many while others take them as numerable.

- 6. STRUCTURE OF SROTAS •Orifices of the srotas are minute, spread long and far away like lotus stalks. Through such channels, ‘rasa’ circulates and nourishes cells and tissues. • Srotas have the colour of the dhatu that they are carrying or transporting. • They could be of different shapes and sizes: round, thick, large, small, microscopic, elongated, and form networks and branches.
- 7. SROTAS PRAMUKHYATA Improper foods,erratic behaviour and other things that are not conducive to the body bring abnormality in srotas leading to the manifestation of disease. Acceptance of normal foods and actions leads to happiness and sound health. Acarya Caraka in Srotovimanasthan of Vimanasthana has mentioned srotas as detailed from now onwards. The tridosas viz, Vata, Pitta and Kapha move inside the srotas to perform their normal functions at different places similarly things that are beyond the perception of sensory organs like the mind, etc. move inside the srotas and are located in each part of the body. Healthy srotas perform their natural functions as a result, the body is free from diseases and unhealthy srotas become the root cause for the development of pathogenesis.
- 8. SROTO DUSHTI PRAKARA Food(ahara) and behaviours or activities (vihara) which are similar to dosas and dissimilar to dhatus in properties cause morbidity in srotas. Symptoms of morbidity of srotas are as follows: 1. Atipravrtti: Excessive action. E.g., Excessive urination- prameha, Excessive watery stools- atisara. 2. Sanga: Excessive obstruction. E.g., jwara (fever). 3. Sira granthi: Tumor-like growth. E.g., arsa. 4. Vimargagamana: Leaving own path and entering into another path. E.g., entrance of mala into mutra marga.
- 9. COMMON SROTO-VIDDHA LAKSHANA Asexplained in Ashtanga Hrdaya Sarirsthana’s 3rd chapter. Clinical features developing from injury to srotas are called as ‘viddha’. Their lakshanas are murcha (unconsciousness), kampa (tremors), adhamana (abdominal distention), chardi (vomiting), jwara (fever), delirium, mutra-avarodha (urine obstruction) and even lead to death. That is why it is said that the physician should inform the attendee about the poor prognosis and then plan the treatment and manage the wounds as per its treatment.
