Treatises and discourses on the themes of Astronomy, Geometry, Phonetics, Metrics, Grammar, Medicine, Politics, Morals and Eros were written under the motto: if a thing is worth doing, it's worth doing well. According to ancient Indian Hindu-Wisdom, the life of a human serves a three-pronged goal (trivarga): The striving fora good dharma (the complete collection of virtuous, religious works as a basis for Families, Civilrights, Codex of Behaviour, Dharmashastra, written by Manu).the useful artha (material possessions, earthly well-being, Arthashastra, written by Kautilya).the pleasant kama (love and all its associated pleasures of the senses, Kamasutra, written by Vatsyayana).According to the Kamasutra, all of these aspects of the life of a human being, should be of equal importance, without any of these spheres taking precedence over the others. In order to attain a fulfilled and meaningful life, the striving after one goal shouldn't hamper the striving after the others. Neglecting one of these areas leads to a diminished stability and to a dangerous imbalance in man. Practising dharma, artha and kama makes it possible to lead a meaningful and joyous life in this world and the next. Sexuality and Erotic are seen as being important, integrated elements of the human existence - the same as eating - and apart from serving the sensual pleasures , also help mankind to propagate , just as eating keeps the body alive. The sensual pleasures of erotic and sexuality not only serve to increase the joy of life and maintain psychological balance, but aid the further development of the mental-spiritual spheres. The senses are perceived as being a refinement of the physical on a higher plane of consciousness whereby, in conclusion, sexuality and erotic contain the secret of life within them. The Origin of the KamasutraAccording to old Indian sources, the ten thousand chapters of the Kamasutra were announced by Prjapati, an abstract deity who, for a long time, was regarded as the god of creation. Mahadeva (the High-Deity Shiva) compiled the ten thousand chapters which in turn were compressed into five hundred chapters by Shvetaketu, a teacher of philosophy and the son of Udalaka. The Kamasutra was transcribed by Vatsyayana in the form of Sutras written in Sanskrit, the ancient Indian tongue, which even today is a living, academic language. Sutras are directives or memory-jogs for adepts, which because they take the form of short, maxims in prose, which are difficult to understand without a commentary. We are dealing here most probably with predecessor of the teaching-books , which was handed down by word of mouth. The treatises of Shvetaketu on which the Kamasutra was based, have been lost.The translations from the Sanskrit which we have today, refer to recognized commentaries made in later centuries. Comments to the AuthorLittle is known about the life of the author, Mallanaga Vatsyayana. It is presumed that the Kamasutra was written by him around the year 250 ad. The author himself states at the end of the Kamasutra, that it was written in a state of mental concentration and chastity. The Readers of the KamasutraThe Kamasutra is directed at young, learned city-dwellers - Nagaraka – to whose lifestyle a whole chapter is devoted in the first main part. Recommendations are also made as to the role of women and their behaviour towards each other. In the Kamasutra itself, Ganikas (courtesan), Princesses and the daughters of high civil-servants are addressed – although the exercises which belong to the 64 Arts should be practised alone or with the aid of a (female) teacher. The modern reader will find a book which is highly informative regarding sexuality and erotic. A book which free from moral judgement, presents exercises in sexual Lust and satisfaction as well as giving an interesting insight into the daily life of people who lived many centuries ago in a culture very different to our own.After reading the lectures, many readers will certainly come to the conclusion that not few writers, doctors, and researchers were inspired by the Kamasutra.
