Varaha, Vishnu's third incarnation as a half-boar, half-human, symbolizes cosmic order by rescuing the earth from chaos and embodying divine stability.

Varaha, the third incarnation of Vishnu, appears as a half-boar, half-human figure, deeply rooted in Indian mythology. He is most widely known for his heroic rescue of Bhudevi, the earth goddess, from the demon Hiranyaksha, symbolizing the triumph of good over evil. However, in Puranic traditions, Varaha transcends this narrative, embodying the Prama-Brahma, or the supreme primordial god, distinct from Brahma the creator. As Varaha, Vishnu represents cosmic order and stability, lifting the earth from chaos and restoring balance, merging divine power with the forces of nature.
