Varaha Purana

नववर्षसहस्राणि नववर्षशतानि च

For nine thousand years and nine hundred years,

कुबेरभवनाद्भ्रष्टः स्वच्छन्दगमनालयः

He fell from Kubera’s abode, free to go as he wished.

नृत्यमानस्य वक्ष्यामि तच्छृणुष्व वसुन्धरे।. मानवो येन गच्छेत्तु च्छित्त्वा संसारबन्धनम्

I will tell you, O Earth, as he was dancing—listen: by which a man, cutting the bonds of worldly existence, may go.

त्रिंशद्वर्षसहस्राणि त्रिंशद्वर्षशतानि च 139.

Thirty thousand years, and thirty hundred years as well,

फलं प्राप्नोति सुश्रोणि मम कर्मपरायणः

is the reward, O fair-hipped one, for one devoted to my actions.

मद्भक्तश्चैव जायेत संसारपरिमोचितः

He is born as my devotee, freed from the bonds of worldly existence.

जम्बूद्वीपं समासाद्य राजराजस्तु जायते

Having attained Jambudvīpa, he is born as a king of kings.

मद्भक्तश्चैव जायेत मम कर्मपरायणः

He is born as my devotee, devoted to my actions.

यो मामुपनयेद्भूमे मम कर्मपथे स्थितः

Whoever leads me, O Earth, remaining on the path of my actions,

स कृत्वा पुष्कलं कर्म मम लोकं स गच्छति

having performed abundant deeds, he goes to my world.

मम भक्तसुखार्थाय सर्वसंसारमोक्षणम्

For the sake of the happiness of my devotees, and the liberation from all worldly existence,

स तु तारयते जन्तुर्दश पूर्वान्दशापरान्

that being delivers ten ancestors before and ten after.

पठेद्भागवतानां च मध्ये मुक्तिरतात्मनाम्

If one recites among the Bhāgavata texts, liberation is attained by the self.

यदीच्छेत्सिद्धिकल्याणं मंगलं च मम प्रियम् 139.

If one desires success, welfare, auspiciousness, and what is dear to me,

मा पठेच्छास्त्रदूषाय अध्यायं वा कदाचन

one should never recite this chapter for the sake of criticizing scripture.

इति श्रीवराहपुराणे भगवच्छास्त्रे सौकरे चाण्डालब्रह्मराक्षससंवादे सौकरमाहात्म्यं नामैकोनचत्वारिंशदधिकशततमोऽध्यायः

Thus, in the Śrī Varāha Purāṇa, in the divine scripture, in the dialogue between the outcaste and the Brahma-rākṣasa, is the one hundred and thirty-ninth chapter named 'The Greatness of the Boar.'

अथ कोकामुख(बदरी) माहात्म्यम् श्रुतानि देवस्थानानि त्वया प्रोक्तानि यान्युत

Now, the greatness of Kokāmukha (Badarī): The holy places have been heard by you, and those you have described.

किंच ते परमं स्थानं यत्र मूर्त्त्याकृतिर्भवान्

But what is that supreme place where you, in form and image, reside?

श्रीवराह उवाच येषु स्थानेषु तिष्ठामि कथ्यमानानिमाञ्छृणु

Śrī Varāha said: Hear now of those places where I reside, as they are being described.

तव कोकामुखं नाम यन्मया पूर्वभाषितम्

That place called Kokāmukha, which I spoke of before,

स्थानं लोहार्गलं नाम म्लेच्छराजसमाश्रितम्

is the place named Lohārgala, resorted to by the king of the mlecchas.

सचैत्यं पश्य मे स्थानं जगदेतच्चराचरम्

Behold, along with its sanctuaries, my abode—this entire world, both moving and unmoving.

ये तु जानन्ति मां देवि गुह्यां कामगतिं मम

But those who know me, O Goddess, and my secret, the path of my desire—

ततो देववचः श्रुत्वा पृथिवी वाक्यमब्रवीत्

Then, having heard the words of the god, the Earth spoke these words:

धरण्युवाच कथं कोकामुखं श्रेष्ठं तद्भवान्वक्तुमर्हसि

The Earth said: How is that excellent Kokamukha? You ought to tell me that.

श्रीवराह उवाच नास्ति कोकामुखात्स्थानं नास्ति कोकामुखात्प्रियम्।।140.

Śrī Varāha said: There is no place superior to Kokamukha, nor is there anything dearer than Kokamukha.

यस्तु कोकामुखं गत्वा भूयो विनिवर्त्तते

But whoever, having gone to Kokamukha, turns back again—

यानि यानि च क्षेत्राणि त्वया पृष्टानि वै धरे।. कोकामुखसमं स्थानं न भूतं न भविष्यति

Of all the sacred places you have asked about, O Earth, there has never been, nor will there be, a place equal to Kokamukha.

मम सा परमा मूर्त्तिर्यां न जानन्ति गोपिताम्

That supreme form of mine, which they do not know, being concealed—
