Instructions

According to Ayurveda, the seven dhatus - Rasa (Plasma), Rakta (Blood), Mamsa (Muscle), Meda (Fat), Asthi (Bone), Majja (Bone Marrow) and Shukra (Regenerative Fluids) are the fundamental principles (elements) that support the basic structure and functioning of the body. They are also the sites where doshas enter when they cause disease. Hence understanding of the seven dhatus is important to understand pathology; what goes wrong in the body.

Yesterday, we began a new journey by understanding the first dhatu - Rasa (Plasma). Now, it is the time to activate the second dhatu - Rakta (Blood).

Rakta dhatu is a body component similar to blood. Its important function is to give life or maintain vitality (jivana).

In the day-23 session, Dr. Pramod Tripathi guides you on how to activate the second dhatu - Rakta (Blood) and why it is important to maintain the health of this dhatu.
