Maharishi could have saved his pee for some ucky reasons too -- after all, in The Laws of Manu serving a cow for a year, bathing in cow pee, smearing one's body with cow dung etc. is considered purifying. Maybe Maharishi has a special group of MMY holy-pee bathers that we just have never heard about.
Don't laugh. How many years were those Nazi Boys running the TMO in Seelisberg before most of us heard about it? I'm just sayin'! The practice of drinking pee is thousands of years old. So as far as I'm concerned, I would almost believe anything along these lines having happened behind the curtains of Oz. Norman Mailer in his book Ancient Evenings created a character whose job it was to take the poop of the Pharaoh, mold it into little balls and plant these balls with seeds of veggies that, thusly fertilized, were to be eaten by the faithful. Then there's always googling "shit eaters" for a resounding whack to one's psyche. The extremes of the bell curve can actually make me vomit, so I just don't go "certain places" with google, but arrrgh what stuff some folks get into. Okay, gotta stop thinking about this now. Oh, "the world is not stranger than we imagine -- it's stranger than we can imagine." My bottom line: I don't give a shit.
