Kama sutra Unified Lovers Position
He expected to find her alone, but she is with her foster
sister. He is not the kind of man to shirk his duty, but still!
The naughty girls hardly allow him time to think. Before he
knows what has hit him, he is in their arms. He must
recognize them with his eyes closed. Which one
kisses him? Which one scratches him? Whose yoni is this?
He loses every time.
His hands and his mouth are no match for the forfeits they
impose. And now here are the two beauties, hip against hip,
their legs raised, offering their yonis. Clasping them both in
his arms, the seasoned lover switches from one to the other
and, with all the valiance of his lingam, fills them with joy.
It is the united congress.
The object of the enjoyment of women is twofold, viz.,
pleasure and progeny. Any woman who can be enjoyed without sin
for the purpose of accomplishing either the one or the other of
these two objects is a Nayika.
Nayikas are of three kinds, viz., maids, women twice
married, and public women. Gonikaputra has expressed an opinion
that there is a fourth kind of Nayika, viz., a woman who is
resorted to on some special occasion even though she be
previously married to another. These special occasions are when
a man thinks one of the following:
This woman is self-willed, and has been previously enjoyed
by many others besides myself. I may, therefore, safely resort
to her as to a public woman though she belongs to a higher
caste than mine, and in so doing I shall not be violating the
ordinances of Dharma.
This is a twice-married woman and has been enjoyed by others
before me, there is, therefore, no objection to my resorting to
her.
This woman has gained the heart of her great and powerful
husband, and exercises a mastery over him, who is a friend of
my enemy; if, therefore, she becomes united with me, she will
cause her husband to abandon my enemy.
This woman will turn the mind of her husband, who is very
powerful, in my favor, he being at present disaffected towards
me, and intent on doing me some harm.
By making this woman my friend I shall gain the object of some
friend of mine, or shall be able to effect the ruin of some
enemy, or shall accomplish some other difficult purpose.
By being united with this woman, I shall kill her husband, and
so obtain his vast riches which I covet.
The union of this woman with me is not attended with any
danger, and will bring me wealth, of which, on account of my
poverty and inability to support myself, I am very much in
need. I shall, therefore, obtain her vast riches in this way
without any difficulty.
This woman loves me ardently, and knows all my weak points, if
therefore, I am unwilling to be united with her, she will make
my faults public, and thus tarnish my character and reputation.
Or she will bring some gross accusation against me, of which it
may be hard to clear myself, and I shall be ruined. Or perhaps
she will detach from me her husband, who is powerful, and yet
under her control, and will unite him to my enemy, or will
herself join the latter.
The husband of this woman has violated the chastity of my wife,
I shall therefore return that injury by seducing his wives.
By the help of this woman I shall kill an enemy of the king,
who has taken shelter with her, and whom I am ordered by the
king to destroy.
The woman whom I love is under the control of this woman. I
shall, through the influence of the latter, be able to get at
the former.
This woman will bring to me a maid, who possesses wealth and
beauty, but who is hard to get at, and under the control of
another.
My enemy is a friend of this woman’s husband, I shall therefore
cause her to join him, and will thus create an enmity between
her husband and him.
For these and similar other reasons the wives of other men
may be resorted to, but it must be distinctly understood that
is only allowed for special reasons, and not for mere carnal
desire.
Charayana thinks that under these circumstances there is
also a fifth kind of Nayika, viz., a woman who is kept by a
minister, and who repairs to him occasionally; or a widow who
accomplishes the purpose of a man with the person to whom she
resorts.
Suvarnanabha adds that a woman who passes the life of an
ascetic and in the condition of a widow may be considered as a
sixth kind of Nayika.
Ghotakamukha says that the daughter of a public woman, and a
female servant, who are still virgins, for a seventh kind of
Nayika.
Gonardiya puts forth his doctrine that any woman born of
good family, after she has come of age, is an eighth kind of
Nayika.
But these four latter kinds of Nayikas do not differ much
from the first four kinds of them, as there is no separate
object in resorting to them. Therefore Vatsyayana is of opinion
that there are only four kinds of Nayikas, i.e., the maid, the
twice married woman, the public woman, and the woman resorted
to for a special purpose.
