The Varahi Stuti is a Sanskrit hymn of praise dedicated to Goddess Varahi — the boar-headed form of the Divine Mother, one of the Sapta Matrikas and closely associated with the Mahavidya tradition. Varahi is especially invoked for her power of stambhana (stilling, paralyzing, and silencing) — the ability to halt the speech, vision, and actions of enemies and obstacles before they can cause harm. This stuti calls upon her protective, restraining power and her grace in fulfilling the devotee’s desires.

नमोऽस्तु देवि वाराहि जयैकार स्वरूपिणि ।
जपित्वा भूमिरूपेण नमो भगवतः प्रिये ॥ १॥

जयवाराहि विश्वेशि मुख्यवाराहिते नमः ॥ २॥

सर्वदुष्ट प्रदुष्टानां वाक् स्तम्भनकरी नमः ॥ ३॥
नमस्तम्भिनि स्तम्भेत्वां जृम्भे जृम्भिणिते नमः ।
रुन्धेरुन्धिनि वन्देत्वां नमो देवीतु मोहिनी ॥ ४॥
स्वभक्तानांहि सर्वेषां सर्वकाम प्रदे नमः ।
बाह्वा स्तम्भकरी वन्दे चित्त स्तम्भिनिते नमः ॥ ५॥
चक्षु स्तम्भिनि त्वां मुख्य स्तम्भिनीते नमो नमः ।
जगत् स्तम्भिनि वन्देत्वां जिह्वा स्तम्भन कारिणि ॥ ६॥
स्तम्भनं कुरु शत्रूणां कुरुमे शत्रु नाशनं ।
शीघ्रं वश्यंच कुरुते योग्ने वाचात्मके नमः ॥ ७॥
ट चतुष्टय रूपेत्वां शरणं सर्वदाभजे ।
होमात्मके फट्रूपेण जयाद्यान केशिवे ॥ ८॥
देहिमे सकलान् कामान् वाराही जगदीश्वरी ।
नमस्तुभ्यं नमस्तुभ्यं नमस्तुभ्यं नमोनमः ॥ ९॥
