The mountain-goddess of many names, wife of Shiva, thethird person of the Hindu Trinity, who is here termedShambhu for Swayambhu, the Self-Existent. The invocationis abrupt and does not begin with the beginning, Ganesha(Janus), Lord of Incepts, who is invariably invoked by theHindu, that he may further the new undertaking. This god isworshipped under the form of a short stout man, with anelephant's trunk and protuberant belly. (See Vol. III, P. 38,"A View of the History, Literature, and Mythology of theHindus," by William Ward, of Serampore, London, 1832.)The loves of Krishna and the sixteen thousand milkmaidsare recorded in the Bhagavat; this eleventh incarnation ofVishnu is a dark-blue man, playing with both hands uponthe pipe, whilst Radha, his wife, stands his left side.Kamadeva, or the Hindu Cupid, the son of Bramha, isrepresented as a beautiful youth, the most lovely of all thegods, holding a bow and flower-tipped arrow, with which,while wandering through perfumed glades, accompanied byRati, his spouse, he wounds the hearts of the inhabitants ofthe Triloka or Three Worlds. Sir William Jones says thathe appears to correspond with the Greek Eros and theRoman Cupido, but that the Indian description of hisperson and arms, his family, attendants and attributes hasnew and peculiar beauties. Sambar' A'sura was one of theRakshasas, gigantic and diabolical beings, whom Kama slew.

The Ananga Ranga (Stage of Love) or Kamaledhiplava (Boat in the Sea of Love) is an Indian sex manual written by Kalyana Malla in the 15th or 16th century AD. The poet wrote the work in honor of Lad Khan, son of Ahmed Khan Lodi. He was related to the Lodi dynasty, which from 1451 to 1526 ruled India. Later commentators have said it is aimed specifically at preventing the separation of a husband and wife. This work is often compared to the Kama Sutra, on which it draws. It was translated into English in the year 1885, under the editorship of Sir Richard Francis Burton . "Satisfaction and enjoyment comes for a man with possession of a beautiful woman. Men marry because of the peaceful gathering, love, and comfort and they often get nice and attractive women. But the men do not give the women full satisfaction The reason is due to the ignorance of the writings of the Kamashastra and the disdain of the different types of women. These men view women only from the perspective of an animal. They are foolish and spiritless". The work was intended to show that a woman is enough for a man. The book provides instructions in how a husband can promote the love for his wife through sexual pleasure. The husband can so greatly enjoy living with his wife, that it is as if he had lived with 32 different women. The increasingly varied sexual pleasures are able to produce harmony, thus preventing the married couple from getting tired of one another. In addition to the extensive catalogue of sexual positions for both partners, there are details regarding foreplay and lure.
