The Art of Making Love

The Kamasutra is a famous Indian literary text about love. The text also deals with human sexual behavior, though it is not only a book as many people think, about positions in sexual intercourse. It is a book about finding a partner, maintaining power in married life, committing adultery, living with a courtesan or being a courtesan and also about sexual positions during sexual intercourse.

The name of the book, Kama Sutra comes from two sanskrit words, Kama which means desire/love/sex/pleasure and Sutra which means a treatise. The book was composed by Vatsayayan in Sanskrit, which is the ancient literary language of India.
