Relevance

It looks like Ananga Ranga is mentioned in for example Sex Life: Sexuality and the Colonial Origins of Modern Social Thought by Durba Mitra, Studies in Human Sexuality: A selected Guide by Suzanne G. Frayser, Thomas Joseph Whitby and Behavior in the Human Male by Alfred C. Kinsey. I would say that makes Ananga Ranga relevant. Godfellow (talk) 08:07, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is mentioned. I have a copy of AnangaRanga Translation in 1885 by Sir Richard Burton. This is an amazing translation of the scripture. I will post these details once I am done through my studies & research of some of the areas/information. Milindebhirud (talk) 03:28, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
