“Our world is not theirs. We have fortunate access to good nutrition and unfortunate access to environmental toxins”
More ignorance. The practice of amaroli was not something that had come into being as a social convenience, or as a manifestation of a particular cultural attitude. It has come into being because of how it works upon the mind and body when done in a particular way. And the “environmental toxins” make very little difference to a yogi who is well established in practice.

I sometimes take a good snort of urine up my nostrils in the shower and find it quite invigorating. I don’t swallow much just kind of blow it out again just blowing, cleaning my nose purposes more than anything.
Do you think some of this is about getting high? I mean I’ve read stories of tribes drink the urine of their leader after he has eaten a flyagaric mushroom, and then they all start tripping of his urine. Just food for thought.
Nietzsche,
As far as the expansion of consciousness is concerned, no doctor is qualified to speak about the matter. Their whole system of training has no place whatsoever for the exploration of man’s being. Nor does a small one hundred years of expansion of modern science function as a substitute for thousands of years of trial and error in the yogic sciences.
if you want to drink pee, drink cow pee!
i saw a guy in india taking it fresh from the cows bum!!!
also by the way
the sun does go around the earth its all a matter of perspective 
“also by the way
the sun does go around the earth its all a matter of perspective”
Certainly it does, and such a thing has been known for centuries before it ever entered even into the awareness of modern science. The fact is that because of one’s social conditioning, the only thing that has become valid as “evidence” in your understanding is whatsoever has been declared by modern science not understanding that there are other methods for investigation into nature which extend beyond the present knowledge modern science. Nor was in fact the scientific method something which was discovered by the scientists. The methods for the expansion of consciousness have come into being through enormous effort, investigation, trial and error.
i drank urine for a month and didn’t really experience any effect but i gave it up not because of toxins but because i just felt it was weird that everytime i went to the toilet i wanted to drink my pee
anyway, my liver still hurts
my friend told me that the body creates a cure for the diseases of the body and it comes out in your pee, so…
maybe ill start again
and ill tell you if it works in a few months
sublaster,
"i drank urine for a month and didn’t really experience any effect "
Methods such as amaroli are not intended to be practiced alone by themselves, but in combination with a number of other techniques as part of a systematic discipline. The same is the case with all the methods of yoga - whether it is with asana, pranayam, mudras, bandhas, kriyas, mantras, yantras, and so on. And depending on where you are along the path, these methods are going to work differently according to your relative condition. For one person, he may be practicing asana or pranayam for months with little to no effect. For another - just in five minutes, he can become intensely intoxicated almost on the verge of entering deep into meditation. For one person, he may be practicing methods like Maha Bandha and find it to be of little to no effect. For another, the same method has been the cause for the awakening of Kundalini. For one person, he may trying to practice meditation for hours without any result - for another, within a few moments he can enter in a deep samadhi. The problem with most people is that everybody wants a quick fix, not realizing that if you are to derive anything at all from these methods - a certain commitment and one-pointed discipline is needed. The effects are gradual, cumulative. If you expect to practice a technique for a mere month and achieve results, then you may as well abandon all of the methods of yoga altogether. Even for sitting meditation - when I was an ascetic it took me four months of continuous training until I could enter into even the first dhyana.
“my friend told me that the body creates a cure for the diseases of the body and it comes out in your pee”
Don’t listen to your friend.
“and ill tell you if it works in a few months”
It will not, because these methods don’t work like that.
well hang on… if your body doesnt create some kind of natural cure in your pee then what is the point in drinking your pee?
subalster,
It can have medicinal properties when used in a particular way. So can meditation. But the health benefits are just scratching the surface of the phenomenon.
In fact this was practiced by Morarji Desai ( Former PM) turned out he lived for 99 years!
Ashwin
wonder if that has any correlation !?

My grandfather lived to 98 and never touched the stuff. He did drink rum every day of his life. That sounds like a much better plan to me.

Then one is perhaps simply seeking an escape from the problems of ones sufferings. And yes, one can drink rum in a state of great celebration. But if you are already in a state of celebration, then whether or not you are drinking rum makes no difference.
you are off topic this is about drinking pee. I would do it if I was living in a organic world way out far away from pollution and stress and only eating vegetables but we live in a very toxic world from plastics we drink out of to pesticides it is not a smart thing to do nowadays
Hi All,
I am searching for someone who worries that they might be drinking more urine than they should for a documentary television series. This program would explore how/why you began drinking urine, how it affects your life (good and/or bad), and why you think you might be drinking too much. We would provide professional medical consultations, if you’re interested in looking into what you are doing from a medical perspective.
If you’d be interested in participating in this series, or would like more information, please email me at kcox@20west.tv
thank you,
Krissy

Withdrawal from society is not needed to purify your system of toxins - all that is needed is enough asana, pranayam, kriyas, bandhas, and mudras. If your system has become filled with all kinds of so called impurities, it has less to do with the society in which you are living, and is largely of your own doing. If you wanted to - with consistent practice you can still be absolutely involved in the society and yet without all kinds of physical and psychological imbalances. It is not the fault of the society - the situation has been created with your own hands.
I have done Amaroli for the last ten months, and will continue to do so.
I have some books (digital books) about Amaroli, or Urine Therapy as
it is called nowadays
my e-mail is

I will send those books to anyone who is interested in finding more
information on this subject
As I have limited personal experience on this subject I think that this
is the best contribution I can make to this debate
namaste
Back on topic: The herbs listed in the Damar Tantra may assist in purification of the urine. If you think your urine is toxic, maybe if you HAD to drink it you would treat your body as your well and consume only the best in order to produce A-plus “water”.
There is no such thing than one’s mind. Rather, the Mind has various subjects, used to expereince the world. When we say, our mind, we betray the real culprit, the ego.
The Mind can do all the things Amir stated. The ego cant do anything but to lie, that he is the one doing things.
Amaroli, that would be a great name for a bitter dark chocolate. Maybe with urine flavour ? I can already see that great money could be made, if such a product could ever pass sanitary regulations.
