Writing about Khajuraho was not easy, with so much already written on the Temples, by those who have studied them in far more detail than I have. The form my posts eventually took was because of my attempt to classify the Sculptures I had seen, to understand them in the wider context of the temples themselves. Now that I have shown you the Forms of Vishnu, Shiva, the Devi, the Ashta Dikpalas and the Ashta Vasus, let me show you a few sculptures which fit into none of these categories, but fascinated me all the same, for many reasons, and brought up a lot more thoughts as well, starting with this image of Kartikeya.
