Most readers will find the original Burton translation of the Kama Sutra of limited value. Those translations that try to preserve the exact language of the original will be quite a boring read. But some of the modern translations, for example our Complete Idiot’s Guide to Supercharged Kama Sutra, by Al Link and Pala Copeland, offer a modern interpretation of the instructions accompanied by beautiful color photographs of lovers performing the techniques. There are many excellent modern interpretations. Just browse the sexuality section of any large bookstore to find one or many editions. It is not at all difficult to practice the techniques taught in the Kama Sutra. On the contrary it is extremely pleasurable and lots of fun.
