Twenty vessels (dhamani) are said to run all around from the navel here, and four obliquely;
likewise, they declare the large tendons (kaṇḍarā) to be always sixteen, and the brush-like structures (kūrca) to be just six. // 3

3.3.3
yahāṃ tīnasau haḍḍī, aura tīna sau saṃdhi batalāyī gayī haiṃ . lekina jitanī haḍḍī haiṃ utanī hī saṃdhi kaise ho sakatī haiṃ ? kyoṃki do haḍḍiyoṃ ke juḍane para eka saṃdhi hotī hai . isaliye asthi saṃkhyā se, saṃdhiyoṃkī saṃkhyā kama honā svābhāvika hai . suśruta meṃ bhī 300 asthi 210 saṃdhi batalāyī ga+ī haiṃ . yadyapi hameṃ prāpta tīna pratiyoṃme bhī tri tri navapratītaṃ yahī pāṭha milatā hai . to bhī yaha pāṭha aśuddha mālūma hotā hai . yaha lipikāroṃkā doṣa mālūma hotā hai .
Here three hundred bones and three hundred joints have been stated. But how can there be as many joints as there are bones? Because when two bones join, there is one joint. Therefore, it is natural that the number of joints is fewer than the number of bones. In Suśruta also, 300 bones and 210 joints are stated. Although in the three manuscripts available to us the reading 'tri tri navapratītaṃ' is found, nonetheless this reading seems corrupt. This appears to be an error of the scribes.
3.3.4
--suśrutasaṃhitā meṃ nābhiprabhavāṇāṃ dhamanīnamūrdhvagā daśa daśa cādhogāminyaścata- sraḥstiryaggāḥ isa prakāra cavvīsa dhamaniyoṃkā varṇana haiṃ . isaliye samaṃtāt śabda kā artha cāroṃ tarapha, aisā honepara bhī yahāṃ ūpara aura nīce itanā hī grahaṇa karanā cāhiye . isī āśaya ko ācārya pravarane svayaṃ, tiryakcatastraśca dhamanya uktāḥ yaha likhakara vyakta kiyā hai . anyathā samaṃtāt se tiryak bhī grahaṇa ho jātā hai .
In the Suśrutasaṃhitā, it is described that twenty-four channels arise from the navel: ten going upward, ten downward, and four transverse. Therefore, although the word *samaṃtāt* means "on all sides", here it should be understood only as upward and downward. The eminent teacher himself clarified this intention by writing, "and four channels are stated to be transverse." Otherwise, from *samaṃtāt*, the transverse would also be included.
