Re: [www.keralites.net] THe Cow, why do we deem it as holy

 


Agreed some constituents of urine maybe good for treatment of specified diseases. Does that mean we should  start using urine as a   super medicine, for many diseases , without rigorous clinical trials?  We can expect such thoughts to flourish  in a country in which rationalists get killed often and Governments  fail to bring the killers to justice , repeatedly.  Our country badly needs an injection of rational thinking  in all walks  of life . That is the single biggest factor holding us back in the community of nations, not lack of sloganeering in the name of patriotism .

Allen Peter

This article is eye opening.     http://www.pharmaceutical-journal.com/news-and-analysis/news/wee-piddle-pee-golden-liquid-biofluid-are-you-extracting-the-urine/11131969.article

Some  significant paras which is reproduced here are informative.

QUOTE:-

Although whole human urine currently has no application in orthodox medicine, some of its constituents have been put to use. As well as having the medicinal properties mentioned above, urea (now synthesized rather than extracted from pee) is the main content of some instant cold packs used to reduce swelling. These packs contain urea crystals and an internal water bag; rupturing this bag starts an endothermic reaction that cools the pack. And urea labeled with carbon-13 or carbon-14 is used in a breath test to determine the presence of Helicobacter pylori in the stomach and duodenum. The test detects the characteristic enzyme urease produced by the bacterium.

Another important constituent of urine is the enzyme urokinase, which, unlike urea, cannot yet be synthesised and so is either extracted from human urine or obtained from neonatal kidney cells grown in tissue culture. Urokinase is used clinically as a thrombolytic agent. It is costly, but it is the most effective drug in myocardial infarction. It is also used to treat deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and occluded intravenous or dialysis cannulas. And it is administered intrapleurally to help drain pleural effusions and empyemas.       UNQUOTE:

Perhaps our ancestors who could not distill urine and extract these beneficial chemicals which are needed to us recommended whole urine in the belief that it would act as a medicine for our body. As we all know we are taught many so called superstitious do's and don'ts's. If we analyse them scientifically many of these are pointers to some relevant instructions for our safety and well being.

Mr. Mahadevan,

Thanks for taking my remarks in a positive fashion.  I am a senior citizen enjoying my retired life.  I spend majority of my time reading and listening to anything and everything that is interesting.  I have been following keralites.net for quite sometime.  I come across many things falling between "funny" to "outlandish".  There are mails that contain gems of knowledge too.  I rarely respond to any mails. 

I have been reading about urine therapy for sometime now.  A British Naturopath Dr. J.W. Armstrong has also supported this therapy.  It will not be appropriate to discuss about the efficacy or otherwise of this line of treatment here.  While reading this I also happened to read on cow's urine as a line of treatment.  Definitely urine is effective, whether it is your own or cow's, when it comes to treating external bodily afflictions.  But consuming the excrement for setting right serious internal afflictions, appears, stretching the imagination a bit.   I am sure, there are many people out there who may have an opposing view.  Human excrement is a source of food for pigs and even stray dogs.  I have seen some Sadhus consuming human excrement in the Gangetic shores long back. That does not mean we start arguing if it is good for them then why not for us.  We do not pour diesel into a petrol run vehicle because the processing systems are radically different.  But we may use diesel and petrol for cleaning the grease out of both types of engines. 

Thanks once again for your considerate stand.

H. Padmanabhan Iyer.

A funny read.  If cow is bestowed with divine powers how do you explain 'mad cow' disease?  You visit any local animal healthcare center run by the Government and you will find cows afflicted with various types of ailments.  

Nature does not fork out differential treatment to any one creature or plant life.  Everything is created equal and has varying dates of expiry.  Animals do not worship.  They do not build temples,  churches or mosques.  They do not have any caste system.  They do not amass anything for progeny.  Man is something special. He does everything that goes counter to the nature.

"Cow is just an animal like a hen or goat... then why is it revered and why one should not kill and eat it?"


Cow is also an animal, but... a cow has many specialities that no other animal (not even human beings) has in this world.


This is the reason that Hindus consider cow as 'mother' after their own mother, and pray to the cow with respect calling it "go-matha".
These are some truths about go-matha.

If a cow eats something poisonous by mistake, and we drink its milk, will we fall ill? To find out, one cow was regularly fed a particular quantity of a poison every day.
After 24 hours, its blood, urine, dung and milk were tested in a lab to check where the poison could be found. In this way, the tests were done not for 1 or 2 days, but continuously for 90 days in All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) New Delhi. The researcher did not find any trace of poison in milk, blood, urine or dung of that cow.
Then where did this poison fed for 90 days go? Just like Lord Shiva held poison in his throat, the go-matha hid the entire poison in her throat. This is a special quality that no other animal has.
This is the only creature that inhales oxygen and also exhales oxygen.
Cow milk has the quality of countering poison.
There are diseases that medical science has not yet understood; urine of Go-matha has the power to cure them.
If cow-ghee and rice are cooked together, two powerful gases called ethylene-oxide, propylene-oxide are released. Propylene-oxide is the best gas used for creating artificial rain.
Cow-urine is the world's best killer of microbes
With medicines  made using cow dung and cow urine, stomach-related ailments can be cured. 
We can save ourselves from radio-waves by plastering the home floors and area outside home with cow-dung.
Cow-dung has the power to destroy the microbes causing cholera.
If 10 grams of cow-ghee is put in fire (yagnya), 1 ton of oxygen is generated.
If you feel it useful, pls share it with your contacts...
