11. Shesasayi Vishnu
- Descripción:
- Despite the overall Shaiva mood of the Harsha Temple complex, there were once multiple Vaishnav temples on the hill. This particular image of Shesasayi Vishnu or the reclining Vishnu on the serpent Lord Shesa, was likely once the main cultic image inside a now-lost Vaishnav shrine. Nine planets adorn the top of the image, while Vishnu is served by Lakshmi near his feet. Three ayudhapurusa (personification of his weapons) are placed behind him. The reclining Vishnu is shown in his standard iconography wearing a kirita-mukuta, vanamala and with four arms holding a chakra in his left hand above, mace in his right hand which is also supporting his head, flower in his lower right hand while the left lower hand is broken.

- Descripción:
- This Shaiva figure was possibly part of a deva-kostha or sculptural niche placed on the walls of the now-lost Shaiva shrine. The four-armed seated figure holds a trident and a staff in its upper two hands, while the lower two hands are significantly damaged. The figure is ithyphallic and represents the Urdhvareta aspect of Shiva, signifying full control over vital energies through ascetic vigour. This is likely an image of Lakulisa, the preceptor of the doctrine of Pashupata tradition. Given that the Harshnath Temple was clearly under the control of and likely erected by the ascetics of the Lakulisa-Pashupata tradition, the depiction of Lakulisa on temple walls comes as no surprise.

13. Natesa
- Descripción:
- The panel depicting Shiva in his dancing form, Natesa, might have once adorned the ceiling of a lost Shaiva temple on Harsha Hill. Even though Natesa is not typically depicted as an independent sculpture in Rajasthan temples, he often appears as an important figure in the architectural spaces. He is elegantly portrayed above the doorway of the main temple at Baroli and elsewhere at Nilakantha and the later Chauhan Temple at Adhai Din Ka Jhonpra. Natesa is surrounded by various dancers and musicians. He is gracefully holding ḍamru in his right hand and possibly a trident in his left hand, which is significantly damaged. Tightly cloistered figures of dancers and musicians in action and angular postures not only provide visual centrality to the figure of dancing Natesa but also enhance the rhythmicity of the scene. To his immediate left is a musician holding a pakjavaja-like drum. The instrument occupies a central position in the squarish space created between Natesa and a dancer on the sides and between the face of the drummer and the dwarf at the bottom Image courtesy: Government Museum, Sikar

- Descripción:
- The adhisthana has depictions of various Hindu gods and goddesses framed within elaborately carved panels. This panel may be a depiction of Lord Indra who is king of the devas (celestial beings) and ruler of swarga (heavenly realm). Indra is also the dikpala (guardian of directions) of the east, hence he is placed facing the east direction. The central figure is a crowned male standing in samapada mudra (feet equally balanced) and carrying a vajra (thunderbolt). An elephant is standing behind (its head visible on the left) which could be the white elephant Airavata, the mount of Lord Indra. Based on the vajra and the elephant, the figure could be identified with Lord Indra, who is king of the devas and ruler of swarga.
