is indian kamasutra practical?
436215
its practical... but also has a lot of complicated positions... it is written in the form of sanskrit verse and has aphrodisiac descriptions that are not practical in day to day life... but it can always be applied to ingredients available today... it describes how a man and woman united together in matrimony should behave towards each other and also the virtues that each partner should possess. it also describes the ancient practices of the kings , the middle class and the poor class people behaved as far as making love was concerned

The Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana ("Kama Sutra" is Sanskrit for "Aphorisms of Love") is an extraordinary and fascinating work that deserves careful reading and study. Written in ancient India, it is essentially a technical guide, a scholarly treatise if you will, to sexual enjoyment and other sensual pleasures. It also contains profound historical and anthropological insights into the mores and customs of ancient India. The modern reader will often be surprised by how markedly different the cultural paradigms presented in the Kama Sutra are from those of today.\n\nErrors can be subjective & occur in most translations of any type.

The modern 'western' versions of Reiki have simplified the hands on healing technique to a simple task of allowing a person to receive 'divinely guided energy' - that the persons 'higher self' decides what it should best be used for. It is commonly taught, in 'western' styles of Reiki that Reiki is an intelligent energy that goes where it needs to go and does what it needs to do. \n\nIn Traditional Japanese Reiki, however, its not that simple. For TJR practitioners, they have to undergo much training in order to assess and treat energetic imbalances within the human body. Depending on the problems, there are specific hand positions for specific aliments. In Japanese Reiki, where energy is based on a model similar to the Chinese Trad Medicine energy model with Tan Tiens and meridians, one has to gain a much deeper appreciation for energy and how it works. \n\nUsui and Hayashi both had manuals that detailed these specific hand positions. These manuals, coupled with spiritual/philosophical teachings, were given to all students. Takata, who brought Reiki to America, simplified Reiki and did away with these manuals and the specific hand positions - as well as what was left of the spiritual / philosophical teachings that were taught to her as part of her hayashi Reiki training. \n\nIn Usui's original manual, the list of aliments to be treated was fairly extensive - Hayashi's even more so (being a Medical Doctor)\n\nSome treatments would be used as basic treatments for specific body parts: Mouth, stomach, ears, lungs, etc... .\n\nOther treatments were more specific and included everything from bed-wetting to obesity to aphasia to appendicitis to edema to scurvy to heart disease. The list is quite extensive. Depending on the aliment, different hand positions were recommended along with recommendations in changes of diet and herbal remedies (kampo).\n\nFor more info check out the Original Reiki Handbook (Petter 1999). My traditional manual is similar to this in many ways. \n\nHope this helps.

I have to somewhat agree with you.  With sincere apologies to Deepak Chopra I do believe the time for peace is no longer possible.\n\nThe mantra is very appealing and sounds like something I could follow in time, but society just can't handle that type of peace right now.  If a few million followed it we would still be where we are at now, with another religion/ practice to cause more controversy. \n\nVery good point though ;)

Reiki is 19th century Japanese \nTummo is 10th century Tibetan\nKundalini is 7th century BCE Vedic/Indian\nReiki Tummo was invented in the 1998\n\nReiki is based on Shinto & Japanese Buddhist beliefs\nTummo is based on Tibetan Buddhist Beliefs\nKundalini is based on the Vedic text - its own spiritual / philosophical / scientific system of the people pof that time. \n\nNone of these topics are related. I'm not sure that the 'drilling' technique would be either. \n\nFrom what I understand, Reiki Tummo uses this theory to describe how they attain Yoga - or raise the kundalini energy. It is their belief that Reiki comes in from the crown chakra down, opening each chakra on the way. The kundalini resides in the base chakra. The Reiki therfore opens the path for the kundalini energy to rise to the crown chakra from its home in the base chakra. \n\nMany who work with Kundalini energy do not believe this is a safe or practical way to tap into the kundalini potential. \n\nThe interesting things here is that Japanese Reiki has nothing to do with the Chakras. This Reiki / Chakra connection was invented in the 1980's by an American man named Arthur Robertson. Because of the new age community, it has stuck ever since. Reiki is Japanese and is based on Japanese thought. The Chakras are Vedic - coming from a much different time, culture, and perspective. \n\n.....sounds a little new agey to me.

Vaastu Shastra is definitely not superstitious. It is very much a science of directions and can influence our happiness, health and prosperity.

Kamasutram, generally known to the Western world as Kama Sutra, is an ancient Hindu text on human sexual behavior, widely considered to be the standard work on love in Sanskrit literature. The text was composed by Vatsyayana, (pronounced Vaats-yaa-yun), as a brief summary of various earlier works belonging to a tradition known generically as Kama Shastra, the science of love. Kama is literally desire. Sutra signfies a thread, or discourse threaded on a series of aphorisms. Sutra was a standard term for a technical text, thus also the Yogasutram of Patanjali. The text is originally known as Vatsyayana Kamasutram ("Vatsyayana's Aphorisms on Love"). Tradition holds that the author was a celibate scholar. He is believed to have lived sometime between the 1st to 6th centuries AD, probably during the great cultural flowering of the Gupta period.\n\nOH ...
