Abstract

Urinary system (Mutravaha samsthana) of human body is explained in several Ayurveda text books and is meant for the formation and excretion of Mutra (Urine). Urine formation has major role in human physiology. Though there was no availability of microscope, the vision of Apta jana is so clear that the Mutra Nirrman Vidhi is highly appreciable. Ahara is said as Upstambha which after digestion is transformed into nutritive part (Ahara Rasa) and waste product (Urine and feces). The process of Mutra Nirman in Ayurveda is very controversial, so author have tried to prove that Ayurvedic concept of Mutra Nirman is how much scientific.
