The Kama Sutra is a series of texts written on the subject of love, relationships, and sex. Translated literally, the words Kama Sutra mean the Treatise on Pleasure. This book is most popularly known in the Western worlds as a guide to lovemaking, detailing different positions that can enhance the sexual experiences of both partners; however, the Kama Sutra is more than just a guide on how to make love, it is a book that covers a wide variety of topics that include man’s relationship with his wife, his behavior and standing in society, and many others.

The original Kama Sutra is divided into different sections that provide details on different aspects of life. The first section provides an introduction, the second is on sexual union and details the kamasutra sex positions, the third section of the book is on the acquisition of a wife, the fourth section is about the wife, the fifth on the wives of other people, the sixth section on courtesans, and the seventh and last section on the different means of attracting oneself to others.

The Kama Sutra sex positions of which the book is most known for takes up only a small part of the entire publication. All the kamasutra sex positions are shown and discussed in the second section of the book. There are a total of 64 sexual positions described, starting with eight basic positions and another eight variations for each position.

As detailed in the book, love making is not only just about the act itself. There is a chapter on how to kiss and even a chapter on how to use one’s nails in the act of lovemaking. Kamasutra sex positions range from those involving the embrace to the various sex positions done while lying down. Some other kama sutra sex positions also involve role reversals - where the females act the part of the males. All the sexual techniques related to these positions are discussed and shown in illustrations in the Kama Sutra.

The sex positions and techniques detailed in the Kama Sutra are merely a small part of what the book can offer in terms of what one can do to enhance one’s relationship with his partner. The best way to enjoy the KamaSutra is to read the book on its entirety and slowly incorporate the teachings and advice provided by the book into your daily life.
