853. Four-armed Shaiva figure in the Government Museum at Sikar

Beschreibung:: This Shaiva figure was possibly part of a devakostha or sculptural niche placed on the walls of a now-lost Shaiva shrine. It is now housed in the Government Museum, Sikar. The four-armed seated figure holds a trident and a staff in the upper two hands, while the lower two hands are considerably damaged. The figure is ithyphallic, symbolizing the Urdhvareta aspect of Shiva, indicating mastery over the vital energies through ascetic vigour. It is plausible that this image represents Lakulisha, the preceptor of the Pashupata tradition. The Harshnath Temple’s history clearly indicates that the temple was under the control of and likely erected by ascetics of the Lakulisha-Pashupata tradition. Therefore, the depiction of Lakulisha on the temple walls comes as no surprise. Image courtesy: The Government Museum, Sikar

855. Loose architectural fragments on Harsha Hill

Beschreibung:: It seems that the beam, richly carved with human figures, was likely placed on the varandika of the temple, the adjoining portions between the temple walls and the spire. The protruding offsets typically feature mithuna figures inside the niches, while the recess between the two offsets is beautifully carved with images of apsaras or women engaged in different actions such as carrying children, weapons, etc. The male figures are often portrayed with weapons and accompanied by female companions. This fragment is one of the loose architectural fragments on Harsha Hill.
