The 64 Arts of the slave
So I have published two entries that may have seemed out of place from the theme I presented when I began my blog, but I did include in the description BDSM. That being said this is more along the lines of the previous post on training.
I don't know if any of you have ever herd of, or read the book called the “Joy of sex” an illustrated sex manual by British author Alex Comfort, first published in 1972. I did back in the early 90's it was quite enlightening, they talk about all sorts of sexual practices, and kinks, from vanilla to bondage all throughout history, and even the Kama Sutra, at the time we read this, one of the things that stood out to me was something called the 64 arts. It was in part of the Kama Sutra, which was written around the third century AD. It describes “A public woman, endowed with a good disposition, beauty and other winning qualities, and also versed in the 64 arts, obtains the name of a Ganika, or public woman of high quality, and receives a seat of honor in an assemblage of men. She is, moreover, always respected by the king, and praised by learned men, and her favor being sought for by all, she becomes an object of universal regard."
Now this caught my attention, it stuck with me for a long time. My slave at the time and I discussed using this as a template for her training, I said there are good life skills here as well, not just as a slave but for the everyday. We worked on it together and I always wanting to map things out made my first list in a note book, we than worked on refining it. She started her training,... years later and changes in both of us and we went our separate ways, not a bad ending or anything like that, we remained friends for a long time tell she eventually passed away. But that is not the point of this post. Eventually this project was shelved. Though it stayed with me I never let anything go entirely. So few years ago I decided to write the list again, of course it has evolved once more, and though this time I tried to make it more diverse so I hope I wont have to revise it again, who knows. It is interesting to look back at your self and see the changes. Nice way to gauge what you have become and who you where.
So this is more of a training program and target goal. This is my “Big Picture” plan, the direction I create for my slaves training, and how I organize that training. I thought I would share with you what I call "The 64 arts of the slave."
I want to say that if you use this, the training listed below would of course have to be tailored to the individual Master and slave, and some things might not be an option, depending on your slave. For me this is a generic outline of what I would be looking to train my slave to become.
I would also like to note that this program will not work if your slave is not both willing and has some of the skills required, or at least the ability to learn them. I recommend that you alter the list as it applies to your specific needs and her's and that she is aware of what you intend. I would let her read them and the training you intend to use. You should have both party's take an active role in building this. Although your slave may not want to know what you have planed for her, than I would suggest that you at least give her an outline of what you intend. Also keep her limits in mind as you build amd refine it.
The fact is I am stating it in the most direct way possible, what we all want. To train our slave to our desires, I just want to have a purpose behind that training, a goal that can be worked towards and eventually achieved. At least for me it's one of the draws of being a Master and owning a slave. Isn't that the purpose of training?
I suggest you look at my blog post “Foundations” if you intend to use these methods. there is a good outline for getting to know your slave and her needs which will help you create this.
Training:
Initial training time 6 month for first phase.
Use sexual stimulation at least once daily use all of her holes, get her used to have them used at any time and the feeling of being filled.
Training her holes by practicing holding a dildo in her cunt to grip and release, training her mussels teach her about kegels, wearing an anal plug stretch her ass and the mussels to make penetration more pleasant for her.
Instruct her in the use of an enema bag to keep her ass clean for use.
Practice using a dildo to train her mouth for deep throat fucking.
Listening to music selected for its submissive, sexual or erotic lyrics used daily and during sleep.
Reading of sexually explicit materiel, have her retell the materiel she has read while masturbating.
Frequent use of dildos, Ben Wa balls, wearable vibrators with wireless remotes, and anal plugs in public settings, and randomly during the day, get her used to thinking of her self as a sexual object.
Secret public bondage, like wearing body harness, breast bondage under her shirt, dildo panties, will also help to enforce her feelings of submission and being a bound slave.
A set of rules and guidelines, make it long yet repeat several themes to enforce specific mental ideas and images. It should seem a little over whelming but she will find it's not and this will stimulate a positive outlook as she starts to learn faster than she realized.
Place notes around the home with key words on them to remind her that she is a slave. That she is made for sex and always bound.
Decide her sleep cycles, if possible keep them unpredictable during this phase.
Use of repetitive phrases to be repeated as a type of ritual. Sayings to do on a daily basis and when faced with situation, or during idle times. Such things like “What do my rules say” “What would Master think” “Would master be happy if I” “I am a slave and the property of my Master he cars for me and protects me, it is my job to please him” “If she has a job and needs to eat at work have her thank Master for her meal” this type of thing. Make something like a poem or written dedication she reads out loud in the morning.
Waring cuffs on both wrist and ankles, as well as a collar 24/7 except where not appropriate.
Controlling speech by requiring permission to speak, or using a gesture to signify the request. And in situations dictated by the rules.
Asking sexual questions, exploring her sexual fantasies, needs and desires. Get into her head and figure out what makes her tick, find those hidden talents and desires.
Make her masturbate for 2 to 3 minutes ever time she uses the bathroom, takes a shower, when she wakes or sleeps, this will cause the to be horny all the time, give her at least a few orgasms ever few days to keep her from being overly stimulated, and to gain some relief, she will be grateful and it will enforce your control.
Make her masturbate in my presence using toys, bondage equipment, and any other implements at hand make her apply them to her self, push her to be a part of her own enslavement, it will make it more effective if she helps.
Giving choices of different bondage devices and toys to be used on her, add an element of surprise to this by including some pain, or unpleasantness, added as a condition to the choices offered give her options for those choices, this will help enforce her participation.
Imposing clothing restrictions, a slave should be given a slave dress, or uniform, I like heels, stocking and garter, with a half bra as an option for her, nothing else. When aloud to be clothed, restrictions on what and how she dresses. I prefer to have unrestricted access to all her holes so skirts and dresses are preferred, but some times tight pants, short shorts, and spandex, with tight tops, half shirts, see through, or easy access, but it must show off the tits. No bra or panties though. If support is required than a half or demi bra is aloud
Sensory and visual stimulation to create familiarity with being a slave, use could include images of women in bondage, the feeling of leather, the touch of the whip, reading to her, the smell of leather, blindfolds, hoods, long term bondage, caging, holding slave positions, listening to music that has a BDSM theme, watching movies that have a BDSM or dominance/submissive theme, reciting her rules, or some sort of affirmation. add smell and taste to the experience so she can relate the smell or taste, to the experiences. Include sensory deprivation, and after stimulation.
Give her a new name that has meaning, something that reflects her slave self, to help her separate from her from who she is with who she wants to be, help her visualize and build a bond with her new self and life. She knows that was not who she really was, she desires to embody her slave side and become that her real self.
Give her a new view on her purpose and place as a slave and property.
Enforce that she is beneath her Master that her place is in a collar at her Masters feet, teach her to embrace this and her new self it's what she craves.
Restrict all normal activities as something special, a privilege given by her master, things like sitting on the furniture, eating in a normal manor, using the bathroom with out permission, making her go out side instead, watching as she goes. Be creative it helps her accept her slave self and let go of the mask she has created. Restrict her free time make sure all free time is spent on training, focusing and learning what you are teaching her, give her time to meditate, write in a journal.
Begin an exercise routine to strengthen her body, stretch her and get her more limber.
You should put her an a diet that will build her endurance, and increase her health.
Start heel training her, build her leg and calf mussels. Massage them and uses the hot water treatment, to help her train without damage.
Start he on corset training. Don't push to hard but 3 to 4 inches is fine, some can take a little more. Know her limits
Get her into the habit of having no hair below her neck. She should focus on her grooming habits, learning to apply, makeup, lipstick, hair styles and colors.
Assign her a daily routine, this should include bathing me, servicing me in the morning, making breakfast, unless I wish to cook, morning coffee, and preparing for the day. Assign daily chores and tasks like, cleaning, shopping, exorcise, working on training, working a job, or helping her Master should he require.
Teach her to care for all the toys and equipment used on her, make it her responsibility to help maintain them, this will build a bond with the things you do and enjoy doing, as she will remember her experiences and relive them when she is caring for them.
To focus training and obedience, use the method of daily lashings to be given at the end of the day set a number that seems high around 40 or 50, than offer ways to reduce that number like exceptional behavior, enthusiastic attitude, positive behavior, meeting her task with a real desire to please. you can also decide if her behavior warrants a reduction, this can also be effective by adding to the number for bad behavior. It will give her a reason to preform well all the time, because she is working off her punishments, it's not the fear of getting punished, but the desire to earn a way, out it's like setting a goal she needs to achieve. After a time you may wish to limit when you chose to enact this, saving it for times you need stronger methods, you never know some slaves will want this as a permanent thing, That's okay, but watch out you may have a pain slut on your hands.
This is the initial training phase.
This should take about 3 to 6 months to get a routine established, and her training firmly known.
By this point she should know her place, remember the rules, and have good behavior. Depending on the progress you have achieved, you can ether start early or wait tell you have her under control, before introducing the 64 arts of the slave.

This is the base focus for stage two in this stage we will use the methods from stage one to and apply them to the training list.
Begin teaching her in areas she is deficit in, reinforce those she knows, and those she has learned from the first phase.
At this stage she should have learned to embrace her sexual self and her desires, she should have an understanding of her role and the rules she lives by.
Through focused training by creating a schedule of daily activities and goals to achieve she will begin to integrate the list into her daily life and routines.
Provide additional reading materials and training methods for achieving these arts, seek any trainers needed to help facilitate the training in areas you ether lack or need help with teaching. Take part in her practice of theses arts, set aside time to engage in the slave arts, and opportunities perform and practice them in a real application, reward success, and help identify and strengthen areas she is lacking. Punish only those things she has not put effort into (as this would be considered bad behavior,) and encourage progress. This part of her training should be more positive focus less on punishment, you want to create a positive connection with the slave arts and her continued learning, not to say that punishment won't be necessary at times but should only be used to correct bad behavior not her struggles in learning. This is a process which will take time I think depending on the slave between 6 months to a year before she has, becomes proficient in the basic performance of the slave arts. Realize this is a lot of work for both of you. (though my first slave had a great deal of the skills on a very basic level it still took time to train her) Don't expect to her to learn over night, somethings she will take to quickly because of the things she learned in the first phase. Be sure to continue to reinforce the things from the first phase, they build the foundations for her continued success in mastering this stage. As you reach the end of this stage you will notice the many subtitle changes in her character, demeanor, and overall attitude. She will show signs of being more the slave you are creating her into. She will become more submissive and obedient. As she progresses through out this stage her old life will begin loose it's importance and her new focus will be on your goals, the guidance and rules will be a natural part of living.
NOTE: Don't cut her off from those who are important to her, he family, friends, or children, if there are any. Help her integrate who she's becoming with those she loves. After all they will notice a difference and ask, that's what people do. Help her, guide her encourage her to use the tools you gave her, to navigate through these situations. Things may get hard, family may not understand, help her and support her through the changes. This could be a difficult time for her and may affect her training, so be prepared to encourage and guide her, have more patience, while still being firm. Reminder her that there is nothing wrong in being her self, and that she should never hide it, that doesn't mean she should share it with everyone, as it is a personal way of life, but to always be proud to be her Masters slave.
The more she begins to incorporate these new behaviors and attitudes she will begin to form the “slave mind” this is an overall acceptance of all her teachings, training and rules.
The “slave mind” is what she craves, it is the natural focus and unquestioned knowing of being a slave, and not “thinking about being a slave”. This is what she was looking for, what she craved and desired when she accepted her need to be a slave. To give her control over to her master so he could mold her and shape her into the things that she wanted and he desired.
Phase Three:
Phase three will be a refinement of the above list focusing mind, and body, as the “slave mind” at this point she should have much of her training become routine a normal way of being, this is the last step to bring her to the state of it becoming second nature, she won't just think about her devotion, it will be automatic, she won't think about obeying command she will just do it, when she if faced with a decision she will just react as she was taught. She won't have to watch her behavior or remember how to act she will just act.
Now this is a critical part of the training, it is necessary to integrate into her routines a measure randomness or spontaneity, it is critical that through this phase you start pushing her training by testing her, making her preform and use The 64 slave arts, you want her to have routine, but you don't want things to get boring.
Overview of methods for training during the three phases, this provides a basic list of things you'll need to know to build the list, and the methods of training you will employ. Sense it largely represents my desires I have included them here also. If you wish to do your own 64 Arts of the slave you will need to adjust them to your particular taste and that of the slave you wish to train.
Maintain sexual stimulation, keep her ready and hungry.
give rewards for sexual enjoyment of the training she receives, encourage her desire and guide her body and mind towards acceptance of sexuality and training
Create difficult choices between various pain/pleasure training methods and make her choose one of them as a reward for having pleased me.
enforce the idea she must earn her keep by using her body to serve, weather by getting a job serving her master domesticity, or serving him sexually.
first phase gather knowledge:
fears
hopes
desires
sexual history
sexual fantasies
sexual fears and boundaries
turn on's and turn off's
religious ideals
bad habits
good habits
likes, and dislikes
body image
dress
mannerisms
build model from this information to reform into your new patterns based on the selected criteria, keep the initial building blocks on an emotional level as women are more emotional and will bond better with the training. To keep her emotions engaged create meaning in the things she dose, give purpose to her actions show her that it pleases you, let her see you pleasure and pride. Encourage and acknowledge her success, reward and praise her for it. Use this to seed the further components adding pleasure and emotional conditions to aid in strengthening these new ideas and thought patterns. Have her recite rules, her new ideals, and beliefs than reinforce them with rewards in the form of sexual gratification and sexual stimulation praise, a treat some special food or desert a special bath given by Master, try to make the positive reinforcement pleasant, and a physical experience if possible. Control her orgasms and only allow her to cum after building up the sexual tension, releasing endorphin's, oxytocin, serotonin, and dopamine , use triggers from trigger words, images, during her orgasms to deepen the mental programming and encourage her to embrace and proclaim her new self. This should be done at the moment of orgasm, to allow her to take it with her into her subspace. Than preform any aftercare needed.
Help her Identify her pleasure with her desires to be a slave, help her embrace this as her new purpose encourage he desire and need to be owned and serve her Master.
Teach her to crave the implements of her training and his pleasure, teach her to embrace her chains and give her what she craves and she will love her submission and slavery,
keep her off balance through training. Do random actions pulling from the training program, to help build the connections, do things like binding her for hours and filling her hols with vibrators to wakening her mental resolve, do this at random hours of the day or night, limited and unpredictable sleep cycles and food intake, braking her mental resistance the use of various forms of visual, audio, and sensory, stimulation to enforce previous conditioning and any new conditioning. The purpose it to give her little time to think and just enough time to act and obey. The more varied you training an the less predictable, while still maintaining the consistency of the things you are teaching and enforcing the more effective it will be, she wont know what to expect or when it is coming but she will no what to do and how to do it, this will make it easier to train her and make doing over thinking easier. It will also make it more exciting for her and you. It will be an exciting journey.
This is what I came up with after reading about the 64 Arts of the Kama Sutra. Well not exactly this, as the first time I wrote it was years ago, and several revisions later. We have this. You would not believe how hard it was to formulate this list, if your interested in the original 64 arts you can find sever copies of them on the web.
Tell me what you think.
In my opinion if you succeeded in accomplishing this you would have an amazing slave, and companion for life.
How know maybe it is too much to accomplish, but I know that when se started training my first slave she was close to having some ability in the full list. So I have hopes to achieve this with my slave now.
