Among all these sites, duodenum ([[Amashaya|amashaya]]) and umbilicus (nabhi) are the prime sites of pitta.[Cha.Sa. [[Sutra Sthana]] 20/8][K.S. Sutra Sthana 27/11]<ref name="ref9"/> [[Amashaya]] (stomach) is located in between the breast (stana) and umbilicus([[nabhi]]). In [[Amashaya|amashaya]], the digestion of all types of food takes place. [Cha.Sa. [[Vimana Sthana]] 2/17] Duodenum is the area of the digestive tract where maximum digestive process occurs. Acharya Chakrapani clears that the location of pitta is lower part of [[Amashaya|amashaya]]( i.e. duodenum). [Chakrapani on Cha.Sa. [[Sutra Sthana]] 20/8]
