In Hinduism
Kama-shastra (the science of Love-making)
Source: Brill: Śaivism and the Tantric Traditions (kāmasūtra)Sambādha (सम्बाध) (Cf. Bhaga) refers to the “(female) genitalia”, according to the Kāmasūtra of Vātsyāyana and Jaśodhara’s commentary called the Jayamaṅgalā .—Accordingly, “[When you are] about to practise sex, [first you should] rub her genitalia (sambādha) with your hand, and when there is dampness, the sexual act can be commenced. This is the restoration of passion”.
Kamashastra (कामशास्त्र, kāmaśāstra) deals with ancient Indian science of love-making, passion, emotions and other related topics dealing with the pleasures of the senses.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
