Selecting Your Spouse

Vātsyāyana is the name of the Hindu philosopher who is the author of the Kama Sutra.
In Sanskrit a Sutra is a formula and Kama means in this context ‘love, pleasure and sensual delights’. Thus the Kama sutra is a set of formulae to be used for love, making love, and sex magic. Thus the Kama Sutra is spiritual treatise on how one LOVEs.

The Kama sutra – 17 The man she should marry
'A girl who is much sought after should marry the man that she likes, and whom she thinks would be obedient to her, and capable of giving her pleasure.
When from the desire of wealth, a girl is married by her parents to a rich man without taking into consideration the character or looks of the bridegroom, or when given to a man who has several wives, she never becomes attached to the man, even though he be endowed with good qualities, obedient to her will, active, strong, and healthy, and anxious to please her in every way.
A husband who is obedient but yet master of himself, though he be poor and not good looking, is better than one who is common to many women, even though he be handsome and attractive.
The wives of rich men, where there are many wives, are not generally attached to their husbands, and are not confidential with them, and even though they possess all the external enjoyments of life, still have recourse to other men.
A man who is of a low mind, who has fallen from his social position, and who is much given to travelling, does not deserve to be married; neither does one who has many wives and children, or one who is devoted to sport and gambling, and who comes to his wife only when he likes.
Of all the lovers of a girl he only is her true husband who possesses the qualities that are liked by her, and such a husband only enjoys real superiority over her, because he is the husband of love.'

The Kama sutra – 08 How to know when a woman is interested in you
A man should first get himself introduced to a woman, and then carry on a conversation with her. He should give her hints of his love for her, and if he finds from her replies that she receives these hints favourably, he should then set to work to gain her over without any fear.
A woman who shows her love by outward signs to the man at his first interview should be gained over very easily. With regard to all women, whether they be wise, simple, or confiding, this rule is laid down that those who make an open manifestation of their love are easily gained over.
