Get full model instance from DisplayTemplates

Inside a DisplayTemplate I can always access the value of the property I want to render by accessing ViewData.Model.
Is there a way to access the instance of the model that the property I'm rendering belongs to from inside the template? For example:

public class IndexModel
{
    public DateTime Date { get; set; }

    [UIHint("Value")]
    public double? Value { get; set; }
}

Then inside the Index.cshtml I have:

@model TestMVC3.Models.Home.IndexModel

@Html.DisplayFor(m => m.Value)

I'd like to know if there is a way to access the instance of type IndexModel (that I could access from Index.cshtml using the Model property), from the Value.cshtml DisplayTemplate
