Kama Sutra Instruction Book by Vatsyayana The most important version of the Kama Sutra ever produced. A year and a half in production, an editorial team took original work of Vatsyayana from the 6th century, translated by Englishman Sir Richard Burton more than 120 years ago, and has brought the Kama Sutra text into the new millenium. Featuring from India, the finest collection of Kama Sutra paintings ever published, the 176 page book is bound in Japanese silk and printed on the highest quality paper. Vatsyayanas work carries a remarkably fresh message on the ancient art of making love. His frank wisdom deals with all levels of love relationships and the detailed descriptions of the erotic love making positions will bring new adventure to your love life. The name Kama Sutra stirs up images of the erotic Orient, of sexual adepts locked in x-rated, acrobatic embraces bodies arched in the bliss of sexual yoga. Or, less poetically, it's that book with all the kinky sex positions. The fact that it is an ancient Oriental book of kinky sex positions, only makes it that much more exotic and titillating. Considering it's ancient beginnings, book was written in India between 100-500 A.D., it is not surprising that this classic work of Hindu eroticism has fired the imaginations of countless generations of horny couples seeking new ways to do it. And, given this usage, it's also not surprising that most folks prefer the Kama Sutra's illustrated versions: with dewy eyed couples pretzeled together for one's viewing enjoyment. Simply put, the central concept that should be noted is this: the individual must live his life with balance: a balance between Dharma the quest for spiritual and religious merit, Artha the quest for fortune and social standing, and Kama the quest for love and sensual pleasure. To put this in modern terms, he does not ignore his inner self his spiritual and emotional core, he does not ignore his social duties such as to family, community, career, but neither does he ignore his sensuality and his need for love and erotic fulfillment. Rather he, or she, seeks to address them all in balanced measure. Sir Richard F. Burton (182190) was a British explorer and writer. His translation of The Arabian Nights remains a classic. Margot Anand, an internationally acclaimed teacher of Tantra, is the author of many bestselling books, among them Sexual Ecstasy: The Art of Orgasm and The Art of Everyday Ecstasy. She lives in California. |
