Kama Sutra

Woman is the sacrificial fire.

The lips of her vulva - the fuel,

the hairs around them - the smoke,

and her love temple itself - the flame.

The act of entry is the kindling,

the blaze of pleasure is the spark.

in this fire the gods offer up semen seed

of which sacred offering

man is born.

Our story begins in a time before time,

in a land half way across the world.

The great god Shiva,

terrible destroyer of worlds,

the ultimate teacher of all yoga, meditation and magic,

was in the mood for love.

Shiva and his wife,

the lovely goddess Parvati,

locked themselves away in their palace on mount Kailash.

A year passed...

Ten years passed...

Still the divine couple did not emerge.

Ten thousand years went by...

Yet Parvati and Shiva remained hidden.

And it's said the world shook with their lovemaking.

Only Nandi, the white bull guardian,

knew what they were doing inside.

And he was sworn to secrecy.

Poor Nandi could not help himself. He broke his vault.

But Shiva's magic turned Nandi's words to flowers

even as they left his lips.

Wise sages, meditating on these blossoms,

wrote the first-ever books

on the art of love.

The greatest of these books

was written by Mallanaga Vatsyayana.

It was cold Kama Sutra

and it remains to this day

the most famous book ever written on the art of love.

In India

generations of painters illustrated the book for princely patrons.

Vatsyayana's world could hardly be more different from ours,

but Kama Sutra is as valuable today

as it ever was.

After all the human body and the human emotions

have not changed at all in the last two thousand years.

In this video

you'll see couples making love in some of the postures described by Kama Sutra.

Please, don't be fooled into thinking that it's the postures that are important.

They're not.

On its own each posture is quite meaningless.

Lovemaking should flow like a dance,

moving effortlessly from one position to the next.

You don't need to use every technique you're going to see

nor is it the physical performance that's important.

What really matters

are the feelings we bring to our lovemaking.

Every action,

every sound,

every caress,

every part of our body

should express our affection,

our tenderness,

our loving care for our partner.

The mind is the most potent sex organ of all.

The shifting, ever changing postures, flowing like dance figures one to another

are only meant to express the tenderness of the controlling mind.

And for this reason

Kama sutra is especially valuable to couples who are married

or in a long relationship.

Watch well,

for as its author wrote

the arts it teaches are so powerful

that the love they arose will not diminish

even in a thousand years.

Kama is often translated as "desire".

But it is far more then just sexual lust.

Kama is every pleasure that can be felt.

It's the delight of all five senses,

in art and music,

in silks, perfumes and good food.

So also

lovemaking is not just sexual union.

It's every pleasure that one person can give another.

It's time spent together

walking, talking or meditating,

and of course caring for one another's bodies.

Bathing each other

is a perfect way to begin lovemaking.

When you touch each other

pay real attention to what you're doing.

Be aware of every tiny action.

One of the great secrets of lovemaking is this:

"Whatever you are doing -

slow down!"

It would be better at half the speed.

Nothing heightens desire as expectation.

So let every touch contain a new idea

and let every touch burn like a cool fire.

The hot bath scented with oils

relaxes both muscles and inhibitions.

It allows you to explore each others bodies

unselfconsciously

and to learn to give and receive pleasure without embarrassment.

It is a time to be playful.

In the bath you may tease and tantalize,

building an appetite for the pleasure still to come.

"Set musicians behind carved screen to play as you bathe together,"

says Vatsyayana.

No wonder sharing a bath is one of the chief pleasures

recommended by Kama Sutra for newly wed couples.

One of the stratagems suggested by Vatsyayana to the young men of his day

was that if their lady friend was ever caught in a shower

they should immediately offer to towel her dry.

Gentle rubbing with the soft dry towel

or trailing the fingertips or nails lightly across the body

causes the tiny hairs to rise in the most exquisite sensation.

Now,

even though your body may be ready for making love,

be patient

just a little longer.

It can be better still.

Jasmine...

Sandal wood...

Musk...

A tower of roses...

These perfumes were as well-known in ancient times as they are today.

Then, as now,

the ultimate non sexual pleasure

was a body massage.

The simplest way is just to rub the scented oils

gently into your lover's skin.

Massage tones up the skin, improves circulation,

relaxes muscles and eases eggs and pains.

Some types of massage work on the deeper body organs,

fortifying and rejuvenation them.

Try to keep the massage non sexual

for as long as you can.

Wait till your body is ready and aching for love.

And when you can hold back no longer

it is time to turn the next page.

Kama is the delight of body, mind and soul in exquisite sensation.

Awaken eyes, nose, tongue, ear and skin.

And between sense and sensed the essence of Kama will flower.

Kama is the breath of lip on lip,

the caress of breasts, hips, buttocks, thighs

in a beautiful embrace from which child is born.

The writer of the Kama Sutra knew something that we moderns have forgotten.

That the sexual union of two people

is an event far more profound than just pleasure seeking.

Again and again in Vatsyayana's ---- Sanskrit ----

we encounter hints and clues of something deeper.

According to ancient Indian and Chinese tradition

the body is a complex of nerve centers called chakras.

At the base of the spine

an awesome energy lies coiled called kundalini.

It can be raised by lovemaking.

The ancients believed that the psychic energy of kundalini

could be harnessed in the quest for salvation which they called moksha,

the release from the cycle of life and death.

Moksha, the very same word,

describes the mystery of the female orgasm.

Some women like to have an orgasm before making love.

She may be able to come just by riding on her lover's knee.

The simplest way to bring her to orgasm

may be to stimulate her clitoris with your fingers.

Remember the rule: "Don't hurry!"

Whatever you're doing it would be much better at half the speed.

When the urge to join your bodies becomes overwhelming

then choose a posture to start with

and just go with the flow of your feelings.

Here are some fairly easy postures

and you don't need to be double-jointed to do them.

Where better to start than with this familiar posture.

We call it Utphullaka (The Opening Flower).

It's usually unkindly referred to as the missionary position.

In fact it's a beautiful posture

allowing satisfyingly deep penetration

and warm affectionate contact of the upper body.

And from this simple start see what a lovely line of postures flows.

If she lifts up her legs high it becomes Vijrimbhitaka

(The Widely Yawning).

Even deeper, more intimate penetration and powerful sensation.

Very slow deep strokes of the penis,

more pressing than thrusting, yield great pleasure for both.

A further simple move changes the posture to Indrani,

the position tradition scribes to (The Wife of the God Indra).

This posture shortens the vagina and is very intense.

The man should be careful

not to trust too hard in case he hurts her.

He should take his cue from her.

Kneeling gives them tremendous power

to vary the depth and direction of his trusts.

If he aims right his penis can massage her G-spot

which lies about two inches inside her vagina,

against the upper wall.

By placing her feet on his chest

she shifts into the posture called Ratisundara (Sweet Love).

Kama Sutra teaches many ways that the man can move his penis in the vagina.

These deep rolling motions give this posture's name -

Smarachakra (Love's Wheel),

which is said to be a great favorite with passionate women.

When she squeezes her thighs together his penis is trapped and tightly squeezed.

This posture is called Bhugnaka (The Rising).

From here it is possible to go back to one of the earlier positions

or on to something more adventurous.

The squeeze can actually be intensified

if she crosses her raised thighs.

This is called Nagara (The Town Way).

And to make it even more powerful

she can now also bring into play the muscles of her vagina.

These postures are not important in themselves,

only as part of the dance of your bodies.

The music of this dance is the flow of desire between you.

The trick is to retain control

while in the same time completely loosing yourself in the music.

Now she opens up into the deep penetration posture

known as Vijrimbhitaka (The Yawning).

By alternatively lowering and stretching one leg at a time

her vagina rolls and squeezes

massaging his penis in a most particular way.

This is the famous Venudaritaka (Splitting the Bamboo),

one of the great secrets of Indian lovemaking

yet absurdly simple when you know how.

When with a little practice you get use to performing this sequence of postures

you'll find that it helps to prolong lovemaking.

If at any time passion takes over

and you feel the approach of orgasm

you can slow down.

Take slow deep breaths to help you regain control.

If you loose control, lie, just enjoy the sensation.

To end the sequence of love postures

what could be better than this little idea.

Lying with her legs apart beneath him

she brings them slowly and deliberately together.

His legs are forced up over the outside of hers

and she captures and milks his penis with her vaginal muscles.

This is called Samputa (The Box).

And it is sublime.

Vatsyayana has said it well:

"Kama is blinded animals,

mere rotting while the females are in heat.

But men and women who know its yoga

embrace infinity in their lovemaking."

Lovemaking, like any art, needs to be practiced.

Think of your bodies as musical instruments.

The Kama Sutra offers hundreds of different tunes to play.

When lovers lie facing one another with thighs interlaced,

her breasts pressed to his heart,

hands seeking new places to caress,

pulling heads together for kisses,

it is called (The Mingling of Sesame and Rice).

When she traps one of his thighs and squeezes it between her own

this is known as (The Embrace of Thighs).

"Once passion is stirring," says Kama Sutra,

"lovers should bring their nails into play".

Under a lovers nails even the most diffident lady

feels her body slowly charged with desire.

This mark was known to the adepts of the Kama Sutra as.

(The Half Moon)

Giving names to each nail mark,

tooth mark and sexual posture

might seem to you to be somewhat unspontaneous.

But each was part of a well rehearsed repertoire

designed to raise passion to fever pitch.

A medieval Sanskrit text - Ratiratnapradipika -

which was never been translated into English,

gives eight ancient Indian technics of cunnilingus.

These technics include

licking of the clitoris with the tongue,

trailing up and down the clitoris hood,

licking in tiny circles

and probing deeply with the tongue into her vagina.

She will find it irresistible

if he sucks her lips and clitoris into his mouth.

But do be careful, the clitoris is very sensitive.

With all these technics it's important to find out what she likes and dislikes.

Place you darling on a couch, set her feet to your shoulders,

clasp her waist and let your tongue to stir her overflowing love temple.

This is called Pohuchushipe.

"Four mouths are pure:" says Kama Sutra,

"the mouth of a sucking calf,

the mouth of a hunting dog seizing its pray,

the birth's beak severing fruit from trees

and the mouth of a woman during lovemaking."

When performing fellatio

the woman has many subtle little technics to give him pleasure.

She can lay her lip slightly ---- tip of his penis, kissing it.

Working with tongue and lips, and even teeth

she can perform little loving actions.

If, while kissing, she lets her tongue flick all over his penis

then pointing it, strikes repeatedly at the sensitive glans-tip,

it is Parimashtaka (Striking at the Tip).

If now, fired by passion,

she takes his penis deep within her mouth,

pulling up on it

and sucking as vigorously as though she was stripping clean a mango stone,

this is Amrachushita (Sucking a Mango).

Delay penetration for as long as you can.

But when you are both well aroused and ready

you might like to try this more advanced sequence of postures.

This delightful idea is called Ratibana (Love's Arrow).

It gives deep and easy penetration

and is very close and loving.

For this reason it is said to be one of the postures

that does most to create love between two people.

From here it is but a small step

to the posture known as Vinasana (The Lute),

"Particularly adored by experienced women," says the poet of Ananga Ranga,

a medieval text on lovemaking.

Penetration here is deeper and more intense.

"If, clasping her tightly in the embrace,

she places her feet on the bed and slowly twists her spine to face away

without braking the union,

it is Jvalamukhi (The Flame Face),"

so says a medieval text, rejoicing in the name

Srngararasaprabadhadipika

or The Erotic Treasury.

Once pleasure has reached a certain pitch

the couple may choose to slow down their lovemaking

and maintain one posture almost indefinitely.

Alternatively, he can move to a kneeling stance

and pull her into his lap, she is stretching out in front.

This posture is Ekabandha (The Knot),

which, as its name suggests, is very deep and intimate.

It allows the man to control the speed and rhythm of the lovemaking

by placing his hands on her waist and pulling her on to him.

The rear entry positions in Kama Sutra

were mostly named after the lovemaking of animals.

"It's fun," Vatsyayana taught,

"to imitate the mating games of deer and tigers,

mimicking their movements and their cries."

This relatively simple posture cannot be better

for deep intimate penetration and just for being close.

Not for nothing was it named Kirtibandha (The Famous Knot).

It's often used by experiences couples

whose objective is to keep themselves hovering almost indefinitely on the brink of orgasm.

The posture changes to Hansa-lila or (Swan Sport).

By slowing everything right-down,

when the orgasm finally comes,

you may find that you can feel it in every part of your body.

Now she moves fluently into the posture called Garuda (The Mythical Bird),

---- the elegant Nagara.

During such long, slow lovemaking,

a woman can enjoy orgasm after orgasm.

This virtuoso move is known as Parivrittaka (The Turn Around),

and is only learnt through practice.

In this instance it is led to a completely new posture, Vrisha (The Bull).

Not only that the Vrisha afford extremely deep and comfortable penetration

but it gives her lover a most erotic view

of her buttocks repeatedly swallowing up his penis.

There will be times when passion creeps up on you

when you are least expecting it

and it's so overwhelming that it cannot be denied.

If the movies are anything to go by -

"Fatal Attraction", "The Postman Always Rings Twice".

There's something especially exciting

about making love on the kitchen table.

Kissing games like these

were supposed always to precede lovemaking, according to some ancient authors.

They believed that without foreplay the couple should never proceed to intercourse.

But Vatsyayana, the author of the Kama Sutra, was impatient with such thinking.

"Once passion is aroused," he said,

"there's little time for protocol."

"You may do whatever you like and do it whenever you please

since Kama respects no conventions

and can't be regimented."

When lips and teeth, and tongue make contact

then it's the lovely kiss that Kama Sutra calls (The Fighting of Tongues).

When she twines her legs about his waist and presses her loins to his

in an embrace so violent

that their bodies seem to penetrate one another,

it is (The Mixing of Milk and Water).

Here is a variant of a posture that we saw earlier on.

It is called Vyomapada or (The Sky-foot).

It gives deep, easy access

and is a position in which hard passionate blows of the penis may be stroke.

If she enjoys it you may try withdrawing completely

and then striking in hard to the full length of his penis.

This is called Nirghata (The Buffet).

You may choose to keep up the pressure against just one wall of her vagina.

And if so, this is called Varahaghata (The Boar's Trust).

In this posture the penetration will be very deep.

In order to become as close as possible without hurting her

he may press his penis in as deep as it will go

and hold it there for space of ten breaths.

This is called Piditaka (Squeezing).

The tabletop is also a useful place to try a variation of the good old missionary position,

Utphullaka.

This will feel different from when it's performed on bed

as penis enter at a higher angle and goes straight to her G-spot.

The tabletop makes it possible to try ideas

that even Vatsyayana never dreamed of.

Utphullaka is a lying-down posture.

But if she now sets up

and wraps her legs around his waist

and throws her arms around his neck

it will become possible for him to lift her directly

into a standing position.

Good-bye to the kitchen table.

Kama Sutra describes this posture as Avalambitaka (Suspended).

It is considered difficult.

It was one of a series of idealized picture positions

that were often depicted in art on temple walls.

With practice, you can learn to hold it for quite a long time.

Once again,

a simple unexpected move can totally transform the story.

Using a chair makes possible a sequence of posture which,

if done seated on the floor, could be performed only by yoga students.

Here, as she uses the leverage of her feet to swing her hips around

they are making a posture called Dolita (The Swing).

This is a particularly good position for the woman.

She is able to call the shots,

making sure that whatever happens is exactly to her liking.

It's also good for the couple who wish to sit together,

locked in their embrace and just experience being close.

By lifting her feet up a little

she increases the depth and angle of his penis within her

while still retaining complete control of her movements.

This is called Kshudgara (The Striking).

She is now completely open up for him

and yet still able to do exactly she likes.

It is she who controls the rhythm and depth of the penetration.

for instance, she may choose five shallow and one deep trust -

a technique much praised by Chinese adepts of the art of love.

The ancient Chinese, like their contemporaries in India,

believed that lovemaking could be a path to spiritual bliss.

For them the secret lay in the conservation of precious semen.

The couple's practice was directed towards staying almost at point of orgasm,

but never reaching it.

By reabsorbing the vital energy back into the body

and directing it into the psychic centers, called chakras,

occult powers could be obtained.

Turning her back to him, she sheets his penis deeply in her vagina.

She can now use her muscles to grip and squeeze it.

If she takes the full length of his penis within her

then squeezes hard as there milking it with her vagina,

it is known as Vadavaka (The Mare),

which is only learned by practice.

Women, who perfected this technique, which was known in Egypt as "The Goonch",

were highly priced by their lovers.

Yet any woman could learn it if she's willing

to practice squeezing and relaxing the muscles of her vagina

at least one hundred times every day.

Perfume your garden with thickets of flowers

like the moss rose, the pearl-jasmine, the Arabian and Spanish jasmines,

the yellow amaranth, the frangipani,

and the fragrant white flower called "Queen of the Night".

Gardens have always been important to lovers.

As Oscar Wild so succinctly observed,

"The book of life begins with a man and a woman in a garden

and it ends with revelation."

Kama Sutra took great pains to describe the ideal garden

for the third century citizen.

It was a place to relax and make love in.

Plant flowering groves of Indian coral and mango trees.

Plant banana palms, and tall stands of sweet khus-khus grass.

Let foot paths lead from the house

and wonder between the flowers and trees.

In the middle of this garden

you should sink a deep well,

or a pool with steps leading down to the water,

or a lotus-covered lake beside which you can sit in the summer.

The scents and flowers in the garden

were all intended to heighten the mood of love.

The trees themselves were the focus of many of the Kama Sutra's most celebrated postures.

Indeed, Vatsyayana even called this embrace Vriksha (The Tree Climber).

The lovemaking posture that follows from this embrace is called Tala (The Palm).

It is not listed in Kama Sutra

but we can be sure that it was a well-known posture.

The later text Ratiratnapradipika tells us

that Vatsyayana and others, who knew the art of love in its great days,

called this posture Tala.

Kama Sutra and all the Indian love texts that followed it

always reserved a special private place for the standing postures

which were thought difficult, and therefore especially splendid.

They were called "Picture Positions"

because these were the postures chosen by sculptors to adorn temple walls.

This neat little idea was known to the adepts of love as

Avalambitaka (The Suspended Position).

She uses her feet to push against his size

and rock herself back and forth against him.

If a couple wish to take it in turns to give each other pleasure

then let them perfect the eights kinds of fellatio

and the eights methods of cunnilingus,

and at last learn to practice both at the same time.

Fellatio begins with what Kama Sutra calls

Nimita or (Touching).

Her lips, laid lightly to her lover's penis,

moving in tiny circles.

She may tease him playfully,

letting her attention seem to wonder away

before returning to the focus of his pleasure.

She takes the head gently between her lips

by turns pressing it and kissing it, and pulling at its soft skin.

This is Bahiha-samdansha (The Outer Plan).

If she now takes the whole head into her mouth and presses with her lips,

it is Antaha-samdansha (The Inner Plan).

Now she kisses it fiercely,

sucking at it as though it was his lower lip.

This is Chumbitaka (Kissing).

She can end by taking his penis into her mouth

and sucking it vigorously - (The Sucking of the Mango Fruit).

If he now uses the techniques of cunnilingus

which we described earlier

and if they pleasure each other simultaneously,

this is the famous Kalila, known in Indian tradition

as (The Lovemaking of the Crow).

In the west we know it better as (Soisent Neuf) or (69),

Although few people realize that since there are fully eight techniques of fellatio

and eight of cunnilingus,

this means that there are at least sixty four ways

in which to enjoy (69).

Of all the standing positions

the rear entry ones are probably the most enjoyable.

This one, which can be seen on the walls of many Khajuraho temples,

was called Gardhaba (The Ass).

it is a very close, intimate way of coupling,

giving intense pleasure to both partners.

Entering from behind is natural to most animals

and although we humans often find it more congenial to bring our faces close together

our bodies are still shaped and formed for this kind of union.

However since every human being is made differently

and since these standing positions depend very much

on the two people being of compatible heights

you should not worry if positions like this one don't happen to work for you.

There are many variations you can use

to explore the limits of what is pleasurable for you.

Things as simple as leaning right forward

or back as far as you can.

Try everything once and stick with what you enjoy.

Of the face to face positions there are three you might care to try

beyond what you've already seen.

This position is Ekapada, literally (One Foot),

which opens up the woman nicely to her lover.

This sensual posture can also be performed using a chair

or a high stool for her to rest her foot on.

These standing postures are not particularly easy

as the angle for union can be narrow

and there may be little freedom of movement.

If at first you find them impossible to perform unsupported

then by all means use a piece of furniture until you've mastered them.

Here's the Janukurpara (The Knee Elbow).

It's another of the so called picture positions

that are to be found on the temple walls of ---- Khajuraho.

For the ancient Indians

lovemaking went beyond the merely human and mortal.

It touched the divine itself.

No coincidence perhaps

that the story that began with a god and goddess

locked away in a ten thousands years passion

should end with a posture dedicated to another god.

For this lovely natural position

is Traivikrama (The Stride of Vishnu),

named after the god Vishnu, who covered the earth in tree strides.

Sacred, profound, lovely -

thus ends Kama Sutra.

Love has many yogas -

the touching of two bodies,

the locking of groins,

the drawing apart and separation,

the quieting of the violent breath,

the still release from body and mind...

The wise know that physical pleasure is not the sole end of lovemaking.

It can be like music - stirring the emotions,

quickening the senses, dissolving thought into rhythm

until only rhythm exists.

On and on it flows as hearts thud faster,

limbs tremble in the beat of drums that double pace and double again

till that music itself brakes

into one long holy note of silence.

This is the tale of the Kama Sutra,

the masterwork on lovemaking.

Says Vatsyayana:

"Men and women who know its yoga

embrace infinity in their lovemaking".

Om, shanti, shanti, shanti...
