         “Cow  urine is  great  elixir,  good  for  stomach  disorders,  pleasing  to
         the heart, the giver of mental and physical strength, and enhances
         longevity.  It  removes  all  blood  disorders.  It  balances  bile,  mucous
         and  airs  and  is  a  remover  of  heart  disease  and  counter  acts  the
         effect of poison.”

         Cow urine has 5 tastes i.e. bi er, hot (as in chilly), sour, sweet and
         salty.  It  promotes  the  mode  of  goodness  (sa va  guna).  It  brings
         goodness in thoughts. By drinking it regularly for six months, man’s
         nature  comes  in  the  mode  of  goodness.  It  destroys  the  mode  of
         passion  and  ignorance.  It  purges  out  toxins  from  the  whole  body
         through  urine,  swea ng  and  stool.  It  helps  to  cure  psychological
         diseases.  It is  unfortunate that  people are exploi ng the cow to
         obtain products such as its skin, meat, fat, blood and bone instead of
         it milk, urine and dung which are all poten ated by the gyr cow’s
         ability to capture the energy of the sun with its unique hump in a
         similar  way  as  photosynthesis  in  plants.  The  sun  emits  many
         varie es of rays. There are three main categories noted by ancient
         Indian  texts:  heat,  nourishment,  and  a  mysterious  ray  or  energy
         called Gau Kiran in Sanskrit. Human being can benefit from the first
         two categories of rays. However, only the Gyr cow and other pure
         bred Indian cows with a hump are capable of capturing assimilate
         and benefit from the Gau Kiran energy, which enters the cow’s body
         through its unique hump and is harvested by the Surya Ketu nerve
