Part 1 |
Love which is felt for things to which we are not habituated, and which proceeds entirely from
ideas, is called love resulting from imagination, as for instance that love which some men and
women and eunuchs feel for the Auparishtaka or mouth congress, and that which is felt by all for
such things as embracing, kissing, etc., etc.
The love which is mutual on both sides, and proved to be true, when each looks upon the other as
his or her very own, such is called love resulting from belief by the learned.
The love resulting from the perception of external objects is quite evident and well known to the
world. because the pleasure which it affords is superior to the pleasure of the other kinds of love,
which exists only for its sake.
What has been said in this chapter upon the subject of sexual union is sufficient for the learned; but
for the edification of the ignorant, the same will now be treated of at length and in detail.
Footnotes
1
High unions are said to be better than low ones, for in the former it is possible for the male
to satisfy his own passion without injuring the female, while in the latter it is difficult for the
female to be satisfied by any means.
2
The strength of passion with women varies a great deal, some being easily satisfied, and
others eager and willing to go on for a long time. To satisfy these last thoroughly a man
must have recourse to art. It is certain that a fluid flows from the woman in larger or smaller
quantities, but her satisfaction is not complete until she has experienced the `spasme
g.n.tique', as described in a French work recently published and called Brevaire as l'Amour
Experimental par le Dr Jules Guyot.
