Nearly 200 years after they were rediscovered in the 1850s, I discovered the Khajuraho Temples in 2014. Sitting pretty in the literal heart of India, Madhya Pradesh, is a group of 12th century Hindu and Jain temples, which are prominent for their erotic depictions — although only about 25% of the Khajuraho group of temples are actually erotic, and only about 20 temples out of the original 80 odd temples have survived destruction by weather and Mughal invasions. Built in the medieval century by the Chandela Dynasty, the Khajuraho temples…
