This chapter examines Surasundaris (celestial beauty figures) sculpted on the walls of Khajuraho temples in ninth-century India. It explores the iconography of these motifs, paying close attention to both the postures and actions of the figures and the architectural contexts in which they are embedded. By linking the materiality of the figures and temple architecture to ritual practices, the chapter argues that these elements together “breathe life” into the Surasundaris. Rather than functioning as static or purely decorative images, the Surasundaris are understood as liminal spatial embodiments mediating between worshippers and the worshipped. This interpretation demonstrates that sculptures and temple architecture can offer concrete evidence for intangible practices of the past.
