Abstract:
Respiration has long been perceived as the essence of life. Ancient Ayurvedic scholars described the process of respiration in ways that parallel the explanations of modern medical science. In Ayurveda, the function of Prana Vayu is considered responsible for regulating respiration in the human body. The channels or pathways (Srotas) through which Prana Vayu flows are referred to as Pranavaha Srotas. Prana Vayu is often compared to atmospheric oxygen, which is essential for sustaining the vital functions of life.
Keywords: Prana Vayu, Pranavaha Srotas, Swasa Kriya.
