Dhatus or the seven tissue elements are the pillars of the body. They promote the growth of the body and support the body as well as the mind. Shukra dhatu is one of them.
- Embryologically, the generative tissue and organs arise from shukra dhara kala, which is present all over the body.
- The generative tissue in sex organs give rise to sperms and ova.
- The sperm and ovum contain the representatives of all the body tissues and organs.
- Semen contains sperms.
- It is secreted by testes and is carried by spermatic cords, i.e. shukra-vahasrotases to the urethra.
- It is ejaculated by the penis during intercourse.
- Sex centres in the brain control the behaviour and activity of the individual.
- Nerve impulses are very important for secretion and ejaculation of semen. Semen secretion starts during adolescence at about 16 years of age.
- Strength, courage, love and happiness depend upon the normal functioning of the shukra i.e. generative tissue.
- Shukra does not have any associated tissue, i.e. upadhatu or a specific waste product.
- Oja (energy) can be considered as updhatu of shukra.
