What is a Srotas?
Srotas (srotamsi plural) is a channel within the body through which the essential elements of life flow. The largest srota is the Maha Srotas or gastrointestinal tract (Maha meaning large or great). The smallest srotamsi can be found in the individual cells of the body that are porous - and through these microscopic channels oxygen and nutrients can be absorbed and waste products expelled. The srotamsi in the body act like conduits or roadways - transporting everything from blood, to air, to sensory information, to nutrients and waste. Come deepen your understanding of this beautiful, intricate, and important system.
