Kamasutra è il più antico testo indù sopravvissuto sull'arte dell'amore.

Kama Sutra (Sanskrit: कामसूत्र,) is an ancient Indian Sanskrit text on the art of love and emotional fulfillment in life. Attributed to Vātsyāyana, the Kama Sutra is written as a guide to the "art-of-living" well, the nature of love, finding a life partner, maintaining one's love life, and other aspects pertaining to pleasure-oriented faculties of human life.

Kamasutra is the oldest surviving Hindu text on the art of love. It is a sutra-genre text with terse aphoristic verses that have survived into the modern era with different bhasya (exposition and commentaries). The text is a mix of prose and anustubh-meter poetry verses. The text acknowledges the Hindu concept of Purusharthas, and lists desire, love, and emotional fulfillment as one of the proper goals of life. Its chapters discuss methods for courtship, training in the arts to be socially engaging, finding a partner, maintaining power in a married life, etc. The majority of the book is about the philosophy and theory of love, what triggers desire, what sustains it, and how and when it is good or bad.
