  Title: Kama Sutra: The Erotic Art of Love and Sex (Kamasutra Sex Positions Pictures: Fully Illustrated) (Kindle Edition)

  This is a beautiful book in many ways.

  It presents knowledge gained over centuries from the remarkably aware culture of ancient India, with both metaphysical and practical components. The aim, to live free creative enlightened lives – to be moral, practical and sensual / sexual. It is this philosophical substance to the Kama Sutra, its honest truth, that has made it one of the most famous and enduring works of literature and sexuality.

  This Kindle eBook is beautifully illustrated with full page pictures of all the Kama Sutra Sex positions (which are the most famous part of the book – and the images are both captivating and erotic).

  The language is formal, old fashioned, quaint – yet somehow this gives the book an elegant charm.

  All in all – the Kama Sutra contains enormous wisdom about how we can cultivate ourselves to increase the pleasure in our lives. Every thinking person should read it.
  
  As translator Sir Richard F. Burton wrote;

  “It is a work that should be studied by all, both old and young; the former will find in it real truths, gathered by experience, and already tested by themselves, while the latter will derive the great advantage of learning things, which some perhaps may otherwise never learn at all, or which they may only learn when it is too late.” (Richard F. Burton)

  Review by Geoffrey Haselhurst for Kamasutra: Fully Illustrated Sex Positions: The Art of Love (With Full Page Indian Erotic Art Pictures of Kamasutra Sexual Positions)

  The Kamasutra is ultimately about wisdom and our creative cultivation. It covers the three aims of life, virtue (dharma), prosperity (artha), and love (kama). It is a philosophical work that discusses sexuality and its cultivation openly and honestly.
  
  The book includes a fully illustrated section showing the complete Kama Sutra Sex Positions with full page pictures.

  Some sexual wisdom from the book.
  
  ‘Kama Sutra: The Erotic Art of Love and Sex (Fully Illustrated Kamasutra Sex Positions & Pictures)’

  “The Kama Sutra is not a pornographic work. First and foremost, it is a picture of the art of living for the civilised and refined citizen, completing in the sphere of love, eroticism and the pleasures of life.”

  Some Wisdom from the 64 Arts (these are the skills that should be cultivated by both men and women).

  “Singing, Playing on musical instruments, Dancing, Writing and drawing, Culinary art, Practice with sword, bow and arrow, Drawing inferences and reasoning, Architecture, Chemistry and mineralogy, Colouring jewels, gems and beads, Gardening, Art of applying perfumed ointments to the body, and of dressing the hair with unguents and perfumes and braiding it, Knowledge of language and of the vernacular dialects, Composing poems, Knowledge of the art of changing coarse and common things to appear as fine and good, Knowledge of the rules of society, and of how to pay respect and compliments to others, Knowledge of the art of war, Knowledge of gymnastics, Art of knowing the character of a man from his features, Making figures and images in clay.”

  “A public woman, endowed with a good disposition, beauty and other winning qualities, and also versed in the above arts, obtains the name of a Ganika, or public woman of high quality, and receives a seat of honour in an assemblage of men. She is, moreover, always respected by the king, and praised by learned men, and her favour being sought for by all, she becomes an object of universal regard.”

  “A man who is versed in these arts, who is loquacious and acquainted with the arts of gallantry, gains very soon the hearts of women, even though he is only acquainted with them for a short time.”

  The book is beautifully written and illustrated with full page pictures of all the kama sutra sex postions. It provides an open honest discussion of human sexuality which is important in understanding our own biological and cultural evolution.
  
  The central premise – we must know the truth to act wisely – and our social and sexual instincts can be creatively cultivated to greatly improve our life and relationships.
  
  Enjoy the Kama Sutra – In Theory and in Practice!
