The abode of urine called Mūtrāśaya (मूत्राशय) supports the wastes of the body and is one of the very important vital structures in the body. Minute ‘Nāḍīs’ (specialized structures meant for transportation) arising from the large intes tine, carry the urine continuously and contribute in the urine formation. This process is just similar to the manner in which many small tributaries and rivers contribute their water to the ocean. Openings of these ‘Nāḍīs’ cannot be traced out because of their minuteness and huge number. Because of this urine, carried by these ‘Nāḍīs’ from the proximity of stomach, ‘Basti’ (urinary bladder) gets filled up continuously throughout the day and night through the process of filtration. This process is similar to the fashion in which a new earthen pot kept immersed in the water up to its neck gets filled up (by the water) after some time through its sides (Suśrutasaṃhitā Nidānasthāna 3/20-24).
