Ancient Indians thought deeply about human life. They divided the life based on four things. Those vital things are ' Dharma ', ' Artha ' , 'kama', 'Moksha' .
Those geniuses said that the Dharma is the key for a fruitful life.
' Manuvu ' wrote the ' DharmaShastra'
'Bruhaspati' wrote the ' Arthashastra'
'Nandiswara' wrote the ' Kamashastra' . It had 1,000 sub divisions.
'Swetakethu' simplified it into 500 sub divisions.
Again 'Bhabravya' simplified it into 150 sub divisions.
At the time of around 100 A.D.,Mallanaga decided to write a perfect and easy understanding Kamashastra. He studied all the literature available.
Mallanaga wrote a fresh Kamashastra with 36 subdivisions.
He named that ' Vatshayana Kamasutram'. Vatshayana was his surname.
Many people criticized that badly. So , it went to the dark area .
After so many years , Some people brought that book into the light. They realized that it is a great helper to men and women.
Kamasutram got very much popularity.
In 1883, Sir Richard Burton translated the Kamasutram to English as ' Vatshayana Kamasutra'.
Then the book was translated in all world languages.
Now , everybody knows about 'Kamasutra'. Many Sexologists are experimenting on the 'Kamasutra'. Many people are following the ' kamasutra' technics.
That is the greatness of unknown Mallanaga Vatshayana.
