It is a work that should be studied by a ll, both old and young, teens and matures. It can also be fairly commended to th e student of social science and of humanity. This work is not intended to be us ed merely as an instrument for satisfying human desires but it is ancient manual of deep and spiritual erotical life educare. A good person, acquainted with the true principles of this science, and who preserves his Dharma, Artha, and Kama, and has regard for the practices of the people, is sure to obtain the mastery o ver his senses. Kamasutra is a part of traditional 64-fold Tantra culture. KAMA-SUTRA MANUAL of YOUR SEXUAL LIFE The word Kamasutra is from Sanskirit language and there is no synonym of it in t he English language. And one thing more Sanskrit and Hindi are two different lan guages. Kamasutra (Hinduism) an ancient Sanskrit text giving rules for sensuous and sensual pleasure and love and marriage in accordance with Hindu law. Kamasut ra is the ancient Bible of proper spiritually sexual life. Kamasutra (Sanskrit: ), ( Kama Sutra), is an ancient Indian art/text widely considered to be the standard work on love in Sanskrit literature. It is said to be authored by Mallanaga Vat syayana. A portion of the work deals with human sexual behavior. The Kama Sutra is most notable of a group of texts known generically as Kama Shastra (Sanskrit: Kāma Śāstra). Traditionally, the first transmission of Kama Shastra or "Discipline of Kama" is attributed to Nandi the sacred bull, Shiva's door keeper, who was move d to sacred utterance by overhearing the lovemaking of the god and his wife Parv ati and later recorded his utterances for the benefit of mankind. Historian John Keay says that the Kama Sutra is a compendium that was collected into its prese nt form in the second century CE. Kamadeva - angel of loveKama ( kāma, kAma) is a Sanskrit word that has the general me anings of "wish", "desire", and "intention" in addition to the specific meanings of "pleasure" and "(sexual) love". Used as a proper name it refers to Kamadeva, the Hindu univerasal God of Love or Archangel of Love. The Kama Sutra (Sanskrit : kAmasUtra/M), (alternative spellings: Kamasutram or simply Kamasutra), is an anci Indian text widely considered to be the standard work on love in Sanskrit litera ture. It is said to be authored by Mallanaga Vatsyayana. A portion of the work d eals with human sexual behavior. The Kama Sutra is mostly notable of a group of texts known generically as Kama Shastra (Sanskrit: Kāma Śhāstra). Traditionally, the f irst transmission of Kama Shastra or "Discipline of Kama" is attributed to Nandi the sacred bull, Shiva's doorkeeper, who was moved to sacred utterance by overh earing the lovemaking of the god and his wife Parvati and later recorded his utt erances for the benefit of mankind. Historian John Keay says that the Kama Sutra is a compendium that was collected into its present form in the second century CE; however, given that Mallanaga Vatsyayana wrote sometime in the Gupta period (between 4th and 6th centuries), this speculation of Keay's is doubtful. The text emphasizes what was known as the purusharthas, or the four main goals o f life. The first is dharma, or the act of living with virtue. The second, Artha , deals with material prosperity. Kama relates to erotic and aesthetic pleasures . Moksha is liberation through being released from the cycle of life and death. The first three goals can be achieved in every day life and are ordered accordin g to importance (yes, sex is the least important). The Kama Sutra is not by defi nition a tantric text as it does not discuss the sacred rites that are meant to accompany those acts. But many who follow tantra do use the book as a guideline or starting point from which they can build their tantric rituals. The sexuality that is included in this book is meant to correspond to that notion of Kama. Th ough it does have a religious nature, the Kama Sutra has been translated into vi rtually every language on earth and is the most known Evangelion of the world. T he Kama Sutra is extremely popular, more than Biblie and sought after by lovers who want to add more excitement to their love lives. The Kama Sutra found copies dates back to about 200-400 CE, about 1,600 or 1800 years or more. It is a manual for developing the erotic sensibilities, knowledge and skill, including specific instruction on sexual techniques, as well as many other sensual and cultural expressions, referred to as the 64 arts. The approac h to sex in the Kama Sutra is from a secular (non-religious, non-spiritual) pers pective, whereas Tantra is definitely spiritual. The Kama Sutra does not in any way deny the value of spiritual practice, it is just not presenting that perspec tive. Tantra is all about awakening to full enlightenment, while the Kama Sutra is about great, satisfying, fulfilling sex, primarily between heterosexual coupl es. In the Kama Sutra sex was considered an essential aspect of everyone’s educati on. Sexual knowledge and skill were considered to be evidence of achievement, re finement, intelligence, psychological maturity, and part of the good life—the book was actually directed toward the upper class, educated, economically affluent p ortion of the population. Mallanaga Vatsyayana was a very holy man (sadhu), a seer, and a sage (rishi), an d in all of the spiritual senses of the word, a tantric. Mallanaga worshipped th e Divine as both feminine and masculine (Shaktishiva), and lived primarily a rel igious life. Mallanaga wrote the Kama Sutra for the ruling class (nobled rulers, lords, princes and kings), which at that time in India s history was the Kshatr iya, or Warrior caste. Based on mentions of 1st Century historical figures in th e Kama Sutra, and on mentions of the Kama Sutra in early 5th Century works, we k now that Mallanaga Vatsyayana wrote the Sutra sometime between the 1st and 4th C enturies A.D. The Kama Sutra is simultaneously a manual of matchmaking, flirting , sensuality in life and in sex, romantic love, human nature, attracting a man, turning on a woman, how to seduce a man, how to captivate a woman, how to get a man or woman to marry you, arranged marriages, affairs, gold-digging, the econom ics of love, affairs with courtesans, keeping the affections of a lover or spous e, love potions, charms, and everything in between. Mallanaga Vatsyayana not inc lude deeper tantric sexual practices in his most famous work, because he knew th at sexuality is only an appropriate spiritual tool for some good students of tan tra marga. Mallanaga wrote the Kama Sutra for the ruling class and their educare so they could balance and enjoy their sensual appetites with their social and s piritual obligations as rulers. And He as a seer not to pass on secrets he knew would be lost on many of these students. KAMASHASTRA (kAmashastra, kAmazastra) Kamadeva - angel of loveIn Indian literature, Kamashastra refers to the traditio n of works on Kama. It therefore has a practical orientation, similar to that of Arthashastra, the tradition of texts on politics, government etc. Just as the f ormer instructs kings and ministers about government, Kamashastra aims at instru cting the townsman (nāgarika) the way to attain enjoyment and fulfillment. The ear liest text of the Kama Shastra tradition, said to have contained a vast amount o f information, is attributed to Nandi the sacred bull, Shiva's doorkeeper, who w as moved to sacred utterance by overhearing the lovemaking of the god Shiva and his wife Parvati. During the 8th century BC, Shvetaketu, son of Uddalaka, produc ed a summary of Nandi's work, but this "summary" was still too vast to be access ible. A scholar called Babhravya, together with a group of his disciples, produc ed a summary of Shvetaketu's summary which remained a huge and encyclopaedic tom e. Between the 3rd and 1st centuries BC, several authors reproduced different pa rts of the Babhravya group's work in various specialist treatises. Among the aut hors, those whose names are known are Charayana, Ghotakamukha, Gonardiya, Gonika putra, Suvarnanabha, and Dattaka. However, the oldest available text on this subject is the Kama Sutra ascribed to Vatsyayana who is often erroneously called as "Mallanaga Vatsyayana". Yashodhar a, in his commentary of Kama Sutra, attributes the origin of erotic science to M allanaga, the "prophet of the Asuras", meaning it originated in prehistoric time s. The attribution of the name "Mallanaga" to Vatsyayana is due to the confusion of his role as editor of the Kama Sutra with that of the mythical creator of er otic science. Vatsyayana's birth date is not accurately known but he must have l ived earlier than the 7th century since he is referred to by Subandhu in his poe m Vāsavadattā. On the other hand Vātsyāyana must have been familiar with the Arthashastr a of Kautilya. On the other hand Vātsyāyana refers to and quotes a number of texts o n this subject, which unfortunately have been lost.
