Koka Shastra

by Alex Comfort

The Illustrated Koka Shastra explores all matters sexual, from setting the mood to explicit instruction on technique. In this edition, Comfort's translation is supplemented with explanatory notes and commentary. Explicit images drawn from a collection of ancient Indian paintings and sculptures - many never before published - complement and augment the classic text. This collection of instruction for intimate relations includes the complete text of the Koka Shastra and Ratimanjari, along with other significant medieval Indian writings on love such as the Ananga Ranga (the Stage of Love-God) and the Panchasaiyaka (the Five Arrows). This celebration of sex and sexuality is an invitation to explore a state of mind that accepts physical intimacy as a positive good and its elaboration as a natural part of life.

Back in 1978 when I got married some one gave me copy of the Kama Sutra as wedding present as dirty joke.
Idiot because it isn't a sex manual of any kind.I have over years read number of classic versions of The Original Kama Sutra 95% of the positions are impossible I know we tried them. You brake bones if tried or end up as hospital joke as the Doctors tried to unlock your personal parts.
But early edition Indian editions are Religions diagrams of the Gods & not good shag ways for the perverted minds who need some fun.Like me & my late wife.
Oh who bought the book the joker -My Mother.!
