Srimad Bhagavatam class by HG Harinamamrit Das on 22nd June 2022 Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 3, Chapter 26 - Fundamental Principles of Material Nature ŚB 3.26.59 नाड्योऽस्य निरभिद्यन्त ताभ्यो लोहितमाभृतम् । नद्यस्तत: समभवन्नुदरं निरभिद्यत ॥ ५९ ॥ nāḍyo ’sya nirabhidyanta tābhyo lohitam ābhṛtam nadyas tataḥ samabhavann udaraṁ nirabhidyata Synonyms nāḍyaḥ — the veins; asya — of the universal form; nirabhidyanta — became manifested; tābhyaḥ — from them; lohitam — blood; ābhṛtam — was produced; nadyaḥ — the rivers; tataḥ — from that; samabhavan — appeared; udaram — the stomach; nirabhidyata — became manifested. Translation The veins of the universal body became manifested and thereafter the red corpuscles, or blood. In their wake came the rivers (the deities presiding over the veins), and then appeared an abdomen. Purport Blood veins are compared to rivers; when the veins were manifested in the universal form, the rivers in the various planets were also manifested. The controlling deity of the rivers is also the controlling deity of the nervous system. In Āyurvedic treatment, those who are suffering from the disease of nervous instability are recommended to take a bath by dipping into a flowing river.
