Rasavahasrotasa is the transport system of circulating rasa all over the body. It originates from the heart and circulates rasa through ten vessels. [Cha. Sa. Vimana Sthana 5/8] The same organs and channels form pranavahasrotasa. [Su. Sa. Sharira Sthana 9/12]. This means the heart and channels transporting rasa also carry prana (vital force) in the body.
