This powerful bronze presents Varahi, the formidable Matrika and commander of Durga’s divine armies, shown here in her Ashtabhuja form. Standing within a flaming aureole, Varahi advances with one foot set forward and the other poised behind, a sculptural rhythm that conveys readiness for battle and unstoppable momentum.

Her flaming hair, crowned with the sun and moon as hairpins, announces her dominion over time and cosmic forces. A garland of skulls frames her torso, marking her role as the great dissolver of fear and ignorance.

In her eight arms, she wields an array of weapons and emblems: chakra, khadaga (sword), hala (plough), trishula, shankha, shield, and musala.

At the base, her attendants sit upon the platform, one rotund figure armed and alert, the other folded in devotion, grounding the composition in both action and surrender. The stylised flames of the prabhavali rise and curl with animated energy, echoing Varahi’s own dynamic stance.

This bronze captures Varahi not as a static icon, but as the living force of the Great Mother herself, poised between command and action, embodying courage, protection, and invincible feminine power.

Embodiment of Divine Fury and Protection

This magnificent bronze sculpture captures the awe-inspiring form of Varahi, a formidable goddess revered in Hindu traditions. As one of the seven or eight Matrikas (mother goddesses), Varahi is a potent force, associated with martial prowess, fertility, and the protection of the innocent. Her divine form, depicted with a unique boar-like visage, signifies her unwavering ferocity in vanquishing evil and her deep connection to the earth. The intricate craftsmanship and the rich patina of the Panchaloha bronze lend an aura of ancient sanctity and enduring power to this imposing statue.

The Matrikas: Celestial Mothers of Creation

The Matrikas are a group of powerful female deities who emerge from the cosmic energies to aid in the creation and protection of the universe. Each Matrika is often depicted as the Shakti (feminine energy) of a major male deity, embodying their divine attributes. Varahi, the divine consort of Varaha, the boar avatar of Vishnu, is especially known for her valor and her ability to obliterate ignorance and negativity. Legends tell of her fierce battles against demons, where her wrath proved instrumental in restoring cosmic balance. Her presence is believed to ward off malevolent forces and bestow blessings of prosperity and well-being upon her devotees.

Masterful Artistry in Lost-Wax Bronze

This exceptional statue is a testament to the ancient and revered Madhuchista Vidhana, or lost-wax casting technique, perfected by artisans in Swamimalai, a region renowned for its bronze sculpting heritage. This intricate process involves creating a wax model of the intended sculpture, which is then encased in a clay mold. When fired, the wax melts and drains away, leaving a hollow cavity. Molten Panchaloha, a sacred alloy of five metals, is then poured into this mold. Upon cooling and removal of the mold, a stunningly detailed and durable bronze sculpture is revealed. The eight arms of Varahi are rendered with remarkable precision, each holding potent symbols of her power.

Iconography and Symbolism

The formidable presence of Varahi is amplified by the array of weapons she wields across her eight arms. These instruments represent her multifaceted abilities to combat all forms of darkness and misfortune. The trishula (trident) symbolizes her power over the three gunas (qualities of nature) and her ability to destroy ego, illusion, and ignorance. The khadga (sword) signifies her sharp intellect and her capacity to sever the bonds of attachment and delusion. Other implements further elaborate on her protective and destructive capabilities. The aura of flames surrounding her head symbolizes her divine energy and her transformative power. The smaller figures at her base represent devotees in prayer, seeking her blessings and protection.

A Centerpiece of Spiritual Significance

This large-scale bronze sculpture is more than just an artistic masterpiece; it is a powerful devotional object designed to inspire awe and reverence. Its imposing stature and the divine energy it emanates make it an ideal centerpiece for temples, meditation spaces, or discerning collectors seeking to imbue their surroundings with sacred power and artistic excellence. The intricate details, from the divine facial features to the ornate embellishments on her attire, speak to the profound skill and devotion of the craftspeople who brought this divine form to life. Owning this Varahi statue is to invite the protective and transformative energies of this powerful goddess into your home or sacred space.
