Shivambu Shastra: Mother of Ayurvedic Medicine- By Natalia Perera“Let the venom be the antidote” – Sufi Poet RumiAwakening the Healer WithinWe are in a very magical era: all around us, in many ways, we are witnessing theconnection between the East and the West, the ancient and the modern,spirituality and science. Modern scientific research is linking its most recentdiscoveries in the field of quantum physics and vibrational healing methods withancient spiritual ideas. We are so truly fortunate to be living in such an excitingtime, and watch in awe, this process of life unfolding before our very eyes.One such powerful practice for healing that continues to flourish today isShivambu Shastra, respected for thousands of years as the “Mother of AyurvedicMedicine” or Amaroli (Amara in Sanskrit means immortal) in Yoga and commonlyknown as “Self Urine Therapy”. Shivambu literally means “Water of Shiva”,referring to the auspiciousness of the practice. Its “method of drinking urine forrejuvenation” is outlined in the Shivambu Kalpa Vidhi, part of a 5000-year-olddocument called the Damar Tantra, linking this practice back to the Vedas, thesacred Hindu texts, and to the practice of Tantra. Tantra is a Sanskrit term whichincludes the roots Tanoti (expansion) and Trayati (liberation); referring to the paththat expands the mind or consciousness and liberates one from the cycle of birthand death. Tantra assigns the highest priority to women and to the worship of theGoddess.In this light, it is wrong to promote Shivambu as a medicine or a magic panaceafor all ailments. It is first and foremost a spiritual practice. Ancient Tantrics used itto unleash the feminine Kundalini Shakti at the base of the spine through theSushuma (the spinal column) to join her male principle Shiva at the top of thespine. When awakened, it liberates a lot of energy that leads to the expansion ofconsciousness and leads to Mukti, or liberation from the bondage of pain andsuffering.The sacred text, the Shri Damar Tantra Shivambu Kalpa Vidhi is defined as such:Damar means “control of the body and sense”, Tantra means “expansion ofconsciousness”, Kalpa means “vitalise or regenerate” and Vidhi means “processor technique”. Its first verse captures Shiva talking to his companion:“O Parvati! Those who practice this method can enjoy the fruits of their meditation andpenance”. It is worth noting that it does not mention the enjoyment of good healthand the absence of disease. It speaks instead of meditation and penance, and for areason. It is warned that stimulation of the Kundalini Shakti together with Vajrolipractices (sex control) are fraught with danger. They are said to be like a fire thatShivambu Shastra: Mother of Ayurvedic Medicine by Natalia Perera
2 of 7burns indiscriminately. The point of the practice is to melt the ego and all itsrelated patterns rooted in ignorance. Some yogis were reported, however, to livefor 150 years, free from disease and gifted with miraculous powers. But what isnot commonly mentioned is that the misuse of those powers was seriouslyregarded and owned by the teacher who had imparted that knowledge to thepupil. So traditionally, initiation was taken under the supervision of anexperienced yoga teacher and the pupil had to undergo a 7 year fixed probationperiod in order to determine his credibility and sensibility.There is something esoteric about urine. As a by-product of the blood, it contains“life-force” or prana and thus is considered to be a super-natural living food.When taken, it “awakens the healer within” who works both on a mechanisticlevel as well as on an energetic level. That is urine has the ability to affect all levelsof being; from the physical, to the emotional, to the mental and to the subtlervibrations of the soul. This deep purification is how Indian yogis used thistechnique to unleash the Kundalini Shakti through the chakras, up to their thirdeye and fostered a more intimate relationship between their self and their HigherSelf. Any health benefits or sense of rejuvenation that was derived from theenergy released by awakening Kundalini Shakti are thus consequential to themain goal of self-realisation. Following Tantric traditions, the practice was oftencombined with mantras, minerals, herbs and spices, massage and asana practices,all to assist the detoxification process and influence the vibrations of the body.Urine is said to be an invaluable source of nourishment and healing yet has beentoo controversial or not financially rewarding enough for it to be studied, let aloneencouraged for its potency. One’s own urine, a living substance, containselements that are specific to one’s body alone  - the reason why it is used inroutine medical tests. The body is constantly producing a huge variety ofantibodies, hormones, enzymes and other natural chemicals to regulate andcontrol its functions and correct disharmony. When reutilised, these chemicalsand nutrients act as natural vaccines, antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-carcinogenicagents as well as hormone balancers and allergy relievers. In short, the body’sown intelligence or defence mechanism is activated to restore the originalphysiological balance or homeostasis. The information that one’s own urinecontains therefore cannot be duplicated nor derived from any other source. Just asnature produces no two people who are exactly the same, there are no two urinesamples in the world that contain exactly the same components.A sterile by-product of blood filtrationUrine is not a dirty and toxic substance rejected by the body. Urine is a by-product of blood filtration, not waste filtration. Medically it is referred to as“plasma ultrafiltrate”. It is a purified derivative of the blood itself made by thekidneys whose principal function is not excretion but regulation of all the body’selements and their concentrations in the blood. Urine can be compared toleftovers from a meal, and this metaphor helps explain why the body excreteselements that are valuable to its own health and wellbeing.Nutrient-filled blood passes firstly through the liver where toxins are removed tobe excreted as solid waste. Eventually, this purified “clean” blood undergoes afiltering process in the kidneys where excess water, salts, vitamins, minerals,Shivambu Shastra: Mother of Ayurvedic Medicine by Natalia Perera
3 of 7enzymes, antibodies, urea, uric acid and other elements not useful at that time bythe body are collected in the form of a purified, sterile, watery solution that isurine. The function of the kidneys is to keep the various elements in the bloodbalanced. The important elements in the blood are not filtered out because theyare toxic and harmful to the body, but simply because the body does not need anymore than that particular concentration of that element at that specific point intime. It is this very regulating process of the kidneys that allows people to eat anddrink more than their bodies need at any one time.Actions and benefitsAnything that was in the blood cannot be harmful to the person that it came from.Besides, when taken internally, the urine does not go straight into thebloodstream but travels through the digestive system where its constituents aresorted out. The useful ones are used up again while others are rejected as solidwaste. When the level of toxins in the blood increases, it stimulates the intestinesand the lymphatic system into flushing themselves out to eliminate any stagnatedexcrements accumulated in the colon. The amount of toxins found in the urine ofeach person is related to the amount of stagnated excrement in their colon. So thetoxins, in such minute amounts in urine, in fact, stimulate a cleansing reaction inthe body.Studies on urea, considered the main poisonous organic solid in urine haveshown it is converted into an essential amino acid once it is recycled by ingestion,helping the body use protein more efficiently. Urea has also been proven to be anextraordinarily effective antibacterial and antiviral agent, one of the best naturaldiuretics and one of the most remarkable skin moisturisers ever discovered. Ureaincreases the water-binding capacity of the skin by opening skin layers forhydrogen bonding thereby attracting moisture to dry skin cells. As a naturaldiuretic, it is unparalleled and is also widely prescribed in cases of oedema orswelling, glaucoma, epilepsy, meningitis and to reduce excess cerebral and spinalpressure. Urea is an FDA-approved medicinal agent being researched and itscomprehensive anti-neoplastic properties are well utilised in anti-cancer drugsand treatments. A subtle scienceMost practitioners have never sought a scientific explanation for why or how itworks: their own experiences have proven to be more than sufficient. However, asmodern medicine’s interest in the powerful healing aspects of Shivambu Shastragrows, more research is being undertaken and a lot is being revealed toscientifically substantiate the therapy’s very rich history. Ayurveda considersdisease to be caused by a shift in the internal metabolic balance of the body,manifested as varying degrees of the 5 elements of ether, air, fire, water and earthin that individual. To create health involves rebalancing the person’s uniquemetabolism to attain its own elemental equilibrium.In scientific terms, one can consider self-urine therapy as an extension of themethods of Jenner and Pasteur, as auto-inoculation or self-vaccination. Certainbodily substances which have been removed from the body, some of which mayhave been produced as a result of an imbalance, are re-introduced into the bodyin small amounts, re-absorbed into the blood through either the intestines or theShivambu Shastra: Mother of Ayurvedic Medicine by Natalia Perera
4 of 7skin. This gives the immune system all the information that it needs and theopportunity to respond appropriately to achieve homeostasis.As part of his “Transmutation Theory”, Coen Van der Kroon (The Golden Fountain:The Complete Guide To Urine Therapy) sees urine as a liquid crystal or hologram,implying that it contains vibrations completely in tune with the vibrationalcondition of the body it comes from. In this light, re-ingestion gives the bodyvaluable vibrational information needed for two things: the first, for the alreadyexisting healthy body resonance, and second, for diseased or stress vibrations thatcounteract any unhealthy resonance in the body.This theory is also close to the principles of homeopathy, which refers to atherapeutic method that clinically applies the Law of Similars and uses medicallyactive substances at infinitesimal doses, where the original substance hasundergone a dilution process. When the body is given a homeopathic remedy, itis stimulated into action, not because of the physical or chemical nature of thesubstance, but because of the energetic nature of the information that is receivedby way of subtle vibrations.Health pointers for self-therapyMost people who start self-therapy find the taste of their urine too sour, bitter orpungent to stomach and the odour too strong to bear. Even when diluted, theymay experience nausea, headaches or other strong reactions before they get usedto it and start seeing results. Martha Christy suggests not to flush out the kidneysby taking copious amounts of water, which dilutes the healing properties of theurine. It is an important consideration that urine is a mere sample of what isflowing through the body’s veins and if repulsive, it should be used as amotivation to improve the internal conditions rather than as an excuse for notusing this therapy to create higher health.Urine is actually less toxic and more alive than much of the food and drink thatpeople take into their body. However, how much more valuable, medicinal andcleansing if the urine is the product of a body fed healthy, natural and organicfoods. Drinking urine seriously makes people think seriously about what they eat.Since it is a by-product of the blood, it makes sense that the cleaner the blood is,the healthier the urine will be. But even urine from relatively unhealthy bloodcontains valuable immunological factors that can improve health if recycled. Theurine drinking’s cleansing effect on the blood can be observed by the change intaste and the colour of the urine as it is more and more recycled: it becomes purerand clearer.If one has difficulty urinating, and it has been said that a weak flow is a sign of aweak life-force, then this practice actually strengthens the flow of urine, showingsigns of an increase in vital life-force.It is recommended that people give up tobacco in all forms and restrictconsumption of cold drinks, strong spices (such as chilli, onions and garlic), friedfoods, junk foods, canned or tinned foods, and refined foods and sugars as muchas possible. Above all, it is best to avoid alcohol, meat and coffee as well asrecreational drugs. In the tradition of Yoga, this is called a Sattwic diet, meaningShivambu Shastra: Mother of Ayurvedic Medicine by Natalia Perera
5 of 7as pure as possible, with a focus on whole, fresh, organic vegetarian foods andpurified water. Following a low-salt and low-protein diet is best. Like all othernatural therapies, this is not a treatment that needs to be stopped after the relief ofcertain symptoms, but can be incorporated into one’s life-long health regime.More subtle yet very real effects of this therapy as a lifestyle choice include feelingstronger, more grounded, self-confident, invigorated and generally lightermentally, emotionally and physically.Self therapy methodsThe middle stream of fresh and warm morning urine at 3 to 5am is the mostpotent and is best taken not mixed with other foods or drinks. However, it hasbeen suggested that to make it more palatable, it can be taken it together withgrapefruit juice, though it is not clear if this would make the practice less effective.Oral drops of fresh urine can be directly placed under the tongue. Urine therapistssuggest starting with 1-5 drops of fresh morning urine on the first day, increasingto 5-10 drops on the second day and on the third day, taking 5-10 drops in themorning and in the evening before bed. With time and experience, this can begradually increased to obtain the results required for the body’s condition – evenup to one full cup at a time. The amount needed is thus adjusted by observing thebody’s reactions to the therapy. The heightened sense of body awareness andintuition helps to determine how many times a day and what amounts are mosteffective for that system at that time, and how to self regulate.Self urine may be used as eye drops, ear drops, foot baths and even as effectiveenemas. Nose drops can help loosen mucous and clear up blocked nasal passages.Gargling with it for a sore throat or inhaling it relieves sinus and respiratorycongestion. Taken internally has a laxative and diuretic effect as it cleanses thedigestive tract.Dr John Armstrong (author of The Water of Life) emphasises the importance ofmassaging with urine. He insists that cures work faster and more effectively inthose that are bathed, massaged, rubbed and soaked in their own urine. He highlyrecommends it for more serious illnesses since urine is absorbed through the skin,and the hormonal and protein-based contents are slowly reabsorbed into thesystem, by-passing digestive juices that may have neutralised their potencyotherwise. In this way, it works best to heal skin blemishes, burns and scar tissue.However, for this usage, he considers it preferable to use old urine of 4 to 8 daysold. The level of ammonia (judging by the strong odour) in the old urine is nottoxic but actually beneficial if used topically only, and not taken internally.Frequently asked questionsCan a woman drink her urine during her menstruation?Yes, and although the urethra and the vagina are two separate organs, there isnothing in the menstrual fluid that can harm a person if it is accidentally mixedwith urine.Shivambu Shastra: Mother of Ayurvedic Medicine by Natalia Perera
6 of 7Can a person drink their urine while on medications?The short answer is no because of the remote possibility of overdosing on anyparticular medication by recycling what is discharged in urine. Hormone, vitaminand mineral supplements, on the other hand, can be taken while drinking urine aslong as the intake is frequently monitored and the amounts reduced accordinglyas the imbalance improves. However, the long answer is that in some cases,according to the illness and the nature of the medications, urine can be taken inhomeopathic doses for some time to kick-start the internal healing process whilstslowly increasing that amount and gradually reducing the medication dosage.In what cases can Shivambu Shastra be used?Diagnosis plays no practical part in the therapy since the urine sample reflects soperfectly the individual’s most intimate details about the state of their health. Infact, it works brilliantly on the more subtle health imbalances that are very realyet often too evasive to label medically. Urine can be massaged topically for themost chronic and stubborn skin problems such as acne, eczema, psoriasis,ringworm, sores, fungal infections, insect bites, wounds, burns even gangrene.Internally, the therapy is said to be effective in AIDS since the AIDS antibodies arefound in urine, as well as cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, anaemia, all sorts ofurinary diseases, weight loss, colds and flus, candida, diabetes, digestiveproblems, jaundice. It has been medically proven to work against polio, andtuberculosis, and has been intramuscularly injected by doctors for immunologicalillnesses such as psoriasis, basal call carcinoma and asthma to name a few.Why does urine therapy then appear ineffective for some conditions?There are times when there is a chronic deficiency of one or several minerals andin such cases, there is none of that mineral in the urine, therefore, although thegeneral health and other metabolic imbalances in that person improve, thatparticular problem may remain the same. For instance, a diabetic person mayneed to take chromium for the cells to use blood sugar and vanadium to produceinsulin. These supplements may be necessary to eradicate diabetes or any otherblood sugar problem that is not corrected with self-urine therapy.A golden futureAlthough much attention has been focused on many elements in urine and theirpotential for medical use, comprehensive research has not yet been conducted onurine as a total entity therapeutically applied and used for spiritual growth. Stillto be proven are the theories regarding how and why urine therapy works – so letus welcome and support the scientific community that is interested inundertaking studies using urine as a total entity, especially in light of the wisdomof the ancient Yogis.More than 600 scientists – many of whom believe that human urine can treateverything from baldness to cancer and AIDS - gathered in Goa, India, for the firstWorld Conference on Auto-Urine Therapy in February 1996. The Second WorldConference on Urine Therapy was held in Germany in 1999 and the third in Brazilin 2003. These are certainly signs that Shivambu Shastra is flourishing all over theworld, that people are ready to take responsibility for their own health, wellbeingand evolution,  and are prepared to overcome their prejudices and open theirminds to embrace such an ancient spiritual and powerful practice.Shivambu Shastra: Mother of Ayurvedic Medicine by Natalia Perera
7 of 7It is certainly crucial in these times when we ache for deeper healing thatShivambu Shastra be acknowledged and adopted as a valid and profoundlyeffective method of creating health in body, mind and spirit.Author’s note:The material in this paper is not intended to replace medical treatments.

Urine can be massaged topically for themost chronic and stubborn skin problems such as acne, eczema, psoriasis,ringworm, sores, fungal infections, insect bites, wounds, burns even gangrene. Internally, the therapy is said to be effective in AIDS since the AIDS antibodies arefound in urine, as well as cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, anaemia, all sorts ofurinary diseases, weight loss, colds and flus, candida, diabetes, digestiveproblems, jaundice. It has been medically proven to work against polio, andtuberculosis, and has been intramuscularly injected by doctors for immunologicalillnesses such as psoriasis, basal call carcinoma and asthma to name a few. Why does urine therapy then appear ineffective for some conditions. There are times when there is a chronic deficiency of one or several minerals andin such cases, there is none of that mineral in the urine, therefore, although thegeneral health and other metabolic imbalances in that person improve, thatparticular problem may remain the same. For instance, a diabetic person mayneed to take chromium for the cells to use blood sugar and vanadium to produceinsulin. These supplements may be necessary to eradicate diabetes or any otherblood sugar problem that is not corrected with self-urine therapy. A golden futureAlthough much attention has been focused on many elements in urine and theirpotential for medical use, comprehensive research has not yet been conducted onurine as a total entity therapeutically applied and used for spiritual growth. Stillto be proven are the theories regarding how and why urine therapy works – so letus welcome and support the scientific community that is interested inundertaking studies using urine as a total entity, especially in light of the wisdomof the ancient Yogis. More than 600 scientists – many of whom believe that human urine can treateverything from baldness to cancer and AIDS - gathered in Goa, India, for the firstWorld Conference on Auto-Urine Therapy in February 1996. The Second WorldConference on Urine Therapy was held in Germany in 1999 and the third in Brazilin 2003. These are certainly signs that Shivambu Shastra is flourishing all over theworld, that people are ready to take responsibility for their own health, wellbeingand evolution,  and are prepared to overcome their prejudices and open theirminds to embrace such an ancient spiritual and powerful practice.
