Hello Kumara. It is the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, which teaches to drink
from the midstream. The "midstream" could be some ancient person's
misinterpretation that one is not to drink from the first or the last
portions of one's urination. Someone thought that if the person was
not circumcised (if a man), the intitial urine would wash away the
germs in the foreskin. But why do they say not to drink from the last
portion of the urination? This unanswered question brings us back to
the original premise. Urine itself IS the "midstream", and you must
try to collect and drink all of it, provided you are not taking in so
much in other fluids that you urinate more than once an hour.

Until the coming of Moses, "the child of the Nile" (to be Born Again
of bioplasma and Holy Spirit), the seven false shepherds would not
permit Jethro's virgin daughters to draw from the well in Midian (the
middle). The midstream is the stream which pours from the middle of
one's body - "the Well in Midian". As Jesus said: "If any man thirst,
let him come unto me, and I will give him Living Water. From out of
his belly (from the Midstream) will pour rivers of Living
Water." "Had you known Moses, you would have known me."

Are the false shepherds still blocking the Way to the Fount Of the
Water of Life? The "false shepherds" exist within the annals of one's
own ignorance, leading us away from the Laws of Long and Happy Life.
Dharmayuddha will spring from the Knowledge within the chela, as was
the fate of Arjuna at the Battlefield of cruel Kurus, in Mahabharata.
This vital matter, on which the life or death of one and all depends,
means about as much to a fundamentalist as Bach fugues do to a
monkey. The forces of falsehood are winning the war for the minds and
hearts of the masses. The Urine Tantra Salvation group joins the many
martyrs and collections of archives destroyed by the enemies of both
God and man. - Dr. J.

after a meal. After that, it's gone. [Btw, I don't eat after real
noon till the next lift of dawn.]
