Śrī Mahāvārāhī Aṣṭottaraśatanāmāvali
(श्री महावाराही अष्टोत्तरशतनामावलि) – Variation 4
Acknowledgments – Shri Lorran for providing the text of the Śrī Mahāvārāhī Aṣṭottaraśatanāma Stotram with two variations. The second acknowledgment goes to Śrī Yogāmba sameta Śrī Ātmānandanātha (Shri Ramesh Kutticad) whose book – “Meditative Texts”, has served as the primary reference for much of the content of this article.
Note – The associated Śrī Mahāvārāhī Aṣṭottaraśatanāma Stotram associated with this nāmāvali is more like a regular stotram extolling the greatness of the Divine Mother Śrī Mahāvārāhī and not merely listing Her attributes. Also, there appears to be a phalaśruti at śloka 15 from the second line. The very last śloka seems to end the nāmāvali with a few attributes. In the process of obtaining the attributes, we failed to fetch the exact number of 108, so I had to dig in to the phalaśruti section and take some attributes from there to close in on 108. It became 126 as I felt I should include more content. The accuracy or the lack thereof, is entirely my own doing. I was assisted by Shri Ramesh Kutticad ji in obtaining about 70 attributes, which I later conjoined to form bigger attributes, due to their close link in describing the associated form of the Divine Mother.
Another unique feature of this stotram, is the description of the first few Āvaraṇas and their associated deities. Some of the attributes described in this nāmāvali are also present in the 3rd variation as well.
Prologue – The Śrī Mahāvārāhī Aṣṭottaraśatanāma Stotram and its derivative Śrī Mahāvārāhī Aṣṭottaraśatanāmāvali containing over 108 attributes are part of an esoteric and very secretive practice known as Śrīvidyā. It falls in the realm of tantra and worship of the Divine Mother in various forms. Technically it falls in the realm of Śākta texts. Any Aṣṭottaraśatanāma derives itself from the associated tantras, purāṇas, kalpas and other related texts. It is essentially a summary of the more elaborate Sahasranāma, that constitutes a thousand attributes of the deity. Studying the Aṣṭottaraśatanāma and other such attribute texts helps the sincere sādhaka (devotee) to enrich their practice of mantra japa and in the process earn the divine grace of the deity.
Śrī Mahāvārāhī along with Śrī Rājaśyāmala form the closest perimeter to the Divine Mother Śrī Lalitā and obtaining their grace, is the same as that of the ultimate reality - Śrī Lalitā. Śrī Mahāvārāhī is responsible for providing us a body to experience the karmas that we are saddled with from timeless births. With Her grace the sincere devotees gain self-realization and liberation by extinguishing all the karma from previous and current birth, thereby ending the infinite cycle of birth and death. Besides the spiritual benefits, the Divine Mother is also invoked for getting rid of all enemies, both internal and external as well as gaining immense wealth, property, health and higher status in the society. Both spiritual and material benefits are gained by praying sincerely to the Divine Mother. It is our hope that this offering serves the stated purpose.

aim̐ glaum̐ aim̐ om̐ Mahāmāyāyai namaḥ |
ऐँ ग्लौँ ऐँ ॐ महामायायै नमः |
Salutations to the Divine Mother Śrī Mahāvārāhī in the form of the Divine Mother Śrī Mahāmāyā, the cosmic illusion. Our true identity as pure consciousness, is hidden from us by the power of the Divine Mother Śrī Mahāmāyā. It is by Her grace alone, that we can discover our true identity and become self-realized. The Pratyaṅga (supplementary) devata of Śrī Mahāvārāhī is Śrī Tiraskaraṇī devī, an aspect of Śrī Mahāmāyā. Her power deludes all non-serious seekers and enemies away from the power and grace of Śrī Mahāvārāhī. It is through Her grace alone that the sincere seekers can get closer to the Divine Mother Śrī Mahāvārāhī and also become rid of all enemies and unwanted influences. |

Salutations to the Divine Mother who is fond of liquor (madya) and meat (māṃsa). Molasses, grape and sugar can ferment into alcohol transforming their state completely. The transformation of one's individuality from a vastly materialistic outlook to a non-egoistic and deeply spiritualistic endeavor, is the metaphor for liquor that the Divine Mother relishes in. The cerebral amṛta oozing from the skull cavity causing intense joy and bliss, is also equated with the madya that the Divine Mother relishes. We are all born with karma inherited over numerous births (Prārabdha karma) and continue to accumulate more karma in every birth fixating us to the cycle of life and death. Even for a spiritually elevated person, some karma can only be expended by taking birth as a human or as other humanoid or similarly conscious beings. A human is composed of a body, mind and faculties of sensory perception. The meat (māṃsa) referred to here is the metaphor for a higher birth such as that of a spiritually minded person who directs their focus towards the Divine Mother to become one with Her. This is most pleasing to the Divine Mother who is very fond of all the spiritual persons (māṃsa) who surrender unto Her. |

Lalitāmbikā was so compassionate in gifting us with deities like Mahā Vārāhī and Rāja Śyāmalā. Devotees need to understand that the speed of results has a lot to do with where you are. Where are you? You are on Earth! The deity that will give you the fastest fruits here on Earth is Mahā Vārāhī! There's no debate about that. Mahā Vārāhī is the fastest deity to deliver results to the residents of Earth. And her Mantra becomes Mahā Ugra during midnight. If you recite her Mantra 108 times during midnight, you will quickly find out who your enemies are because you will see them being destroyed before your eyes and often violently. You will receive the news of their destruction and understand the reason for many problems in your life. Mahā Vārāhī is linked with messengers and war strategies. She destroys enemies on your way to Lalitāmbikā in a very skillful way. Mahā Vārāhī is fiercer than Lord Siva and she attacks the most sensitive part of enemies which is their physical body when it comes to external enemies. Mahā Vārāhī creates a barrier of protection in you, your home and your family. Hostile spirit beings will not even be able to see you or your family and if they get close they will quickly be destroyed. Mahā Vārāhī gives this great advantage that evil spirit beings cannot even see you. Mahā Vārāhī makes you and your loved ones invisible to evil spirit beings. Rāja Śyāmalā Mantra becomes Mahā Ugra during twilight. Rāja Śyāmalā does not destroy enemies. Rāja Śyāmalā turns all enemies into friends or admirers. You'll see evil beings helping you sometimes too. If you worship Mahā Vārāhī and Rāja Śyāmalā you will reach Lalitāmbikā very quickly. The combined power of these two deities sweeps away all obstacles to Lalitāmbikā. Rāja Śyāmalā places the three worlds under your command when she is satisfied. Mahā Vārāhī presides over time. Mahā Vārāhī can distort time to give fruits that would take years in just a few days. Mahā Vārāhī presides over the past, present and future. Mahā Vārāhī is that deity who can alter your destiny based on your Karma. Mahā Vārāhī can go against the laws of Karma just to save you from a terrible fate. Mahā Vārāhī places all the weapons of Lalitāmbikā in the devotee's hand when she is satisfied. Mahā Vārāhī cannot bear to see tears in the eyes of someone innocent and sincere, no matter whether he is a devotee or not, she comes running. No one is faster than her here on Earth. I tell the truth. I tell the truth, truth, truth!

Hearing you speak, I wish I had the Varahi initiation, experience her like you do, and worship her during this navratri.

Namaste! On the occasion of Shri Varahi Navaratri, can you tell us how to meditate on the Ajna Chakra properly when mentally repeating the mantra? Can you tell us something about the Guptagāyatrī (गुप्तगायत्री) mantra? Thank you. I wish you all a very happy Navaratri!

In the past, Mahā Vārāhī came to me in her physical form. Mahā Vārāhī came running, just because I meditated and recited her 12 names and Kavacam a few times with devotion and concentration. That's the size of her compassion and influence here on Earth. Mahā Vārāhī make people more righteous and courageous. Everyone on Earth should know about her and worship her. We would have a lot of extremely fair and dignified people.

Namaste Tripuraghnaji, You have a trove of knowledge that you are blessed with and happy to absorb such knowledge that you are sharing with all. I would request with if possible, to share the step by step process of performing sadhana that anyone can follow for their progress (if its okay for you to advice). This will be very useful for all.

Goodafter noon Krishnaji, I haven't been initiated into Sri Vidhya or any form of initiation, but I've been chanting Sri Suktam (Shodasupachar), followed by Devi Khadgamala, Lalitha Sahasranam, and finally Siddh Kunjika Stotram. Prior to that, I was chanting Durga Saptashati for the past year, and now I'm performing the mentioned puja. Am I doing something wrong, or should I also begin worshipping Maa Varahi or Pratyangira Devi? Please advise me. Many thanks !

You should try and find a guru who can get you started on Kamalā devī upāsana or Śrī Vidyā or Caṇḍī Devī upāsana and guide you further. Note that you may need to find multiple gurus as one guru may not have proficiency in what you are seeking. It is not a good practice to collect and/or recite too many mantras at the same time, but best to practice one at a time with the goal of completing the puraścaraṇa of each mantra before proceeding to the next. While this is not a must when moving within a single tradition such as Śrī Vidyā, it does appear to have some closure with the mantras. To assume that each mantra has separate mantras and by reciting all of them at once in the form of a māla may be more beneficial is wrong. Such māla mantras make sense when the concerned mūla mantra is adequately recited first.

Thank you for your response. I'm feeling a bit unsure about what's best for me right now. There haven't been any noticeable changes in my life . My dreams often involve goddesses, chanting Lalitha Sahasranam, and sometimes I dream about goddess temples, particularly those of Maa Kali, who is our kul devi. I don't have any spiritual mentors, and I've been learning everything from the internet. Could you please provide guidance on how to properly perform Maa's puja? I am very unsuccessful in life and am seeking respect within society. Whatever I do in life it doesn't give me any success . Finding a guru seems challenging in this day and age. Any small guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

You can definitely read from the internet and study the tantras and mantra manuals. There are times when you will need a guru who is experienced with these rituals and might be willing to share the same with you. My sincere suggestion is to find a guru close to where you are, so you can visit and learn in person from them. Simple rituals like chanting the attributes of a deity etc. can be done without any formal initiation. However, understanding their significance etc. might make more sense when an initiation is sought. It is ultimately your choice and definitely dependent upon your time, resources, availability etc. It is also important to note that an initiation does not guarantee any success. There are many factors that influence success and initiation is just the first step in the spiritual journey.

Thank you, Krishna ji, for replying. I've decided to chant Lalita Sahasranama, delving deeper into the meanings behind each name. While I've mastered the mudras and have been studying Sri Chakra for the past month, I will focus solely on Lalita Sahasranama until I receive guidance from divine mother . Many Thanks :)
