OF
THE DIFFERENT WAYS OF LYING DOWN, AND
VARIOUS KINDS OF CONGRESS
On
the occasion of a `high congress' the Mrigi
(Deer) woman should lie down in such a way
as to widen her yoni, while in a `low
congress' the Hastini (Elephant) woman
should lie down so as to contract hers. But
in an `equal congress' they should lie down
in the natural position. What is said above
concerning the Mrigi and the Hastini applies
also to the Vadawa (Mare) woman. In a `low
congress the woman should particularly make
use of medicine, to cause her desires to be
satisfied quickly.
The
Deer-woman has the following three ways of
lying down:
The widely opened position
The yawning position
The position of the wife of Indra
When
she lowers her head and raises her middle
parts, it is called the `widely opened
position'. At such a time the man should
apply some unguent, so as to make the
entrance easy.
When
she raises her thighs and keeps them wide
apart and engages in congress, it is called
the `yawning position'.
When
she places her thighs with her legs doubled
on them upon her sides, and thus engages in
congress, it is called the position of
Indrani and this is learnt only by practice.
The position is also useful in the case of
the `highest congress'.
The
`clasping position' is used in `low
congress', and in the `lowest congress',
together with the `pressing position', the
`twining position', and the `mare's
position'.
When
the legs of both the male and the female are
stretched straight out over each other, it
is called the `clasping position'. It is of
two kinds, the side position and the supine
position, according to the way in which they
lie down. In the side position the male
should invariably lie on his left side, and
cause the woman to lie on her right side,
and this rule is to be observed in lying
down with all kinds of women.
When,
after congress has begun in the clasping
position, the woman presses her lover with
her thighs, it is called the `pressing
position'.
When
the woman places one of her thighs across
the thigh of her lover it is called the
`twining position'.
When
a woman forcibly holds in her yoni the
lingam after it is in, it is called the
`mare's position'. This is learnt by
practice only, and is chiefly found among
the women of the Andhra country.
The
above are the different ways of lying down,
mentioned by Babhravya. Suvarnanabha,
however, gives the following in addition:
When
the female raises both of her thighs
straight up, it is called the `rising
position'.
When
she raises both of her legs, and places them
on her lover's shoulders, it is called the
`yawning position'.
When
the legs are contracted, and thus held by
the lover before his bosom, it is called the
`pressed position'.
When
only one of her legs is stretched out, it is
called the `half pressed position'.
When
the woman places one of her legs on her
lover's shoulder, and stretches the other
out, and then places the latter on his
shoulder, and stretches out the other, and
continues to do so alternately, it is called
the `splitting of a bamboo'.
