The ''sneha'' (fatty) portion of ''majja'' produces shukra. The porosity in the ''asthi'' is produced because of the factors such as ''vata'' and ''akasha.'' ''Shukra'' comes out of ''asthi'' through these pores just as the water comes out of a new earthen vessel. Through the channels known as ''shukravaha srotamsi'', this ''shukra'' spreads all over the body. This ''shukra'' is discharged through the urethra (which is connected to the urinary bladder) because of several factors such as sexual excitation, reflex activities (''vega''), and mental determination (''samkalpa''). Just as the ghee moves out with ease when heated, the ''shukra'' too, is discharged due to the heat liberated during the sexual activity. This process of seminal discharge is comparable with the movement of water from a place of lower altitude to a place of higher altitude) [32-35]

Because of being forcefully propelled (out of the heart) by the action of vyāna vāta, the rasa dhātu spreads all over the body simultaneously, continuously and for the entire life (36).

 

Kha-Vaigunya (abnormality in body system) is responsible for the disease state:

Because of being forcefully propelled (out of the heart) by the action of ''vyana vata'', the ''rasa dhatu'' spreads all over the body simultaneously, continuously and for the entire life [36]

Wherever the rasa experiences obstacle due to abnormality in srotas, rasa readily produces disease in that very same location. This process is comparable with that of the clouds producing rainfall in a localized region that is favorable for rainfall (37).

This principle is applicable even in case of doṣha, where ekadeśa prakopa (abnormal increase at a local site) occurs (37½).
