This Varaha Kavacham is about the Varaha avatar of Lord Vishnu. One who reads the Kavacham daily gets freedom from worries and diseases and gets rid of problems created by planets.
He enjoys several types of pleasures, And in the end, surely attains salvation. He who reads Varaha Kavacham daily himself would get cured of tuberculosis, epilepsy and leprosy.
According to Varaha Purana, Varaha is the avatar of the Hindu god Vishnu in form of a boar, succeeding Kurma and preceding Narasimha. It is third in the Dashavatara, ten principal avatars of Vishnu.
When the demon Hiranyaksha stole the earth (personified as the goddess Bhudevi) and hid her in the primordial waters, Vishnu appeared as Varaha to rescue her.
Varaha slew the demon and retrieved the Earth from the ocean, lifting it on his tusks, and restored Bhudevi to her place in the universe.
Varaha Avatar of Vishnu may be depicted as completely a boar or in an anthropomorphic form, with a boar’s head and human body. His consort, Bhudevi, the earth, is often depicted as a young woman, lifted by Varaha. The earth may be depicted as a mass of land too.
There is a very famous temple for this Varaha incarnation in a place called SriMushnam, which is in Tamil Nadu. Ladies desirous of having a progeny go to this temple, take bath in the Pushkarini pond there and recite this Kavacha. It is believed they would be blessed with good children.
