Friend: Kamasutra is a wild, insane book. Why? (US)
Usually, see shocking images, can’t understand it’s philosophy, spirit. Read the book 3 times to be able to really appreciate it’s ethos.
“The fact a person you’re sleeping with, is also sleeping with another, does’nt mean he doesn’t love you. And, the fact you’re the only person he is sleeping with, doesn’t mean he loves you.” Highlights differences between 5 energies of desire, intimacy, love, sex, lust – intersections, inter-dependence, inter-play, independence. Absolute bliss-point is a merger of 5 energies, into one.
Contrary to popular belief, Vatsayana wrote about an art of living for love, not loving to live. Isn’t just a book about inventive sexual positions. Stands for innocent, authentic intimacy, passion, compatibility, intimate power sharing. Shares techniques to responsibly experiment with eroticism, free sex.
Ultimate aim is to enhance emotional fulfilment, physical ecstasy. Sexuality is a natural, primal, creative energy of universe. Sex, in all forms, is considered sacred, surreal. Inter-mingling of masculine, feminine cosmic principles (Yin/Yang). Manifests as real attraction, desire, inspiration. These heightened states of awareness need clarity of intent, channelisations for complete contentment.
Kama, is an art of raw romance, sensual expressions by mastering 5 senses of sound, touch, vision, taste, smell. Sensuality is more alluring, powerful, nourishing than simple sexuality. Stresses role of masculine energies as sensitive, giving towards feminine. Provide sexual, sensual, orgasmic pleasures. Feminine energies are seductive, receptive. Privilege for feminine energies to intuitively surrender to flights of fantasies.
Suppression of sexual energies has negative effects. Sex fuses, aligns 4 pillars of mind, body, heart, spirit. Pre-requisites for real intimacy – passion, playfulness, pleasure.
Please read it again. Fiery, fresh open-minded pair of eyes, perspectives.
