Varahi Devi Homam

Varahi Devi, a powerful manifestation of Goddess Shakti, is one of the Sapta Matrikas (Seven Divine Mothers) and the commander of the army of Goddess Lalita Tripurasundari. She embodies the boar-faced form of Vishnu’s Varaha avatar, signifying divine protection, courage, and fierce justice.
This 1-day Varahi Devi Puja and Homam invokes Her blessings to destroy negativity, remove fear, and provide spiritual and material protection.
