1. Natya Ganpati, Vishwanath, Khajuraho
This is a very rare form of Nātya Gaṇpatī with ten hands. Ten hands are rarely seen. In the upper two he holds the sarpa, while dancing. In other hands he holds the broken tusk for writing scriptures.

2. From one hand he seems to be offering modaka to his tusk which is also destroyed by the fanatic Islamists now. In one hand he seems to be holding an ankuśa, the other hands are completely or partially broken.
3. But the movement is visible clearly. He is swaying in blissful rhythm, with his ears swaying forward. This is one of the most beautifully sculpted Gaṅeśa I have ever seen.
