Varaha or the boar incarnation of Sri Vishnu is associated with salvaging the Earth, manifested as Bhudevi, from the all-engulfing floods or Pralaya.
Keeping his vow of protecting the earth when it is burdened by the misdeeds of wrongdoers, Bhagawan Vishnu approached the depths of the cosmic ocean and carried Bhudevi to the surface.
Hindu textual traditions describe the majesty of Sri Varaha, whose divine aura as the savior of Earth mesmerized all.
Following the iconography of Sri Varaha murti as mentioned in the ancient Vaishnava text Vaikhanasagama, this Panchaloha Varaha statue is a representation of Sri Vishnu’s boar incarnation as “Bhu-Varaha”.
