There are eight types of Kissing - Kama Sutra, 200 A.D
1. Nimitaka – kissing on lips without force.
2. Sphuritaka – pressing against the lips and occasionally touching the cheeks.
3. Ghaditaka – Setting aside the feelings of shyness, the woman pushes her lips into his mouth and kissing while feeling his tongue. The woman blocks his eyes with her hand.
4. Samachumbana – Equal Kiss – Staying face to face, kiss on her lips. Eyes can touch her eyes.
5. Thiryak – Supporting the right side of her head with his left hand, he kisses her lips while his right hand caresses her.
6. Uddrandha – This is done when one of the partners comes from behind the other. Taking the chin and head, turn his/her head and kiss his/her lips.
7. Avapeeditha – This is suckling the lips, i.e., pulling the woman's lips into the man's.
8. Aakrishta – Simultaneously pressing her upper and lower lips with hands and kissing her lips without teeth-touching.
Dhyutham (Gambling) is competition between the man and woman to take the other’s lips first in his/her mouth. Both compete to catch the other’s lips. When there is a bet beforehand, it is called Akapada-Dyuda and when one of the partners surprise the other by taking his/her lips, it is called Kapada-Dyuda(cheating at game)."
