According to legend, the Kamasutra was created by the Indian god Shiva who, overwhelmed by the joys of sexual experience, wrote a servant a treatise on erotic art. Inspired by the original Kamasutra, this deck is meant to aid seekers in their own quest for enlightenment through the senses.

The companion booklets for most Lo Scarabeo decks are in five languages: English, Spanish, French, Italian, and German.
