Kashi Khand, Chapter 70 mentions
Varahi Devi and the devotees who worship this devi will never fall into any
danger.
Kashi Khand, Chapter 45 states that
Lord Shiva sent sixty four Yoginis to Kashi to create disturbance in the
governance of King Divodas. However, the sixty four yoginis were totally
enthralled by the beauty of Kashi and they decided to settle down in Kashi
itself. Varahi is one of them.
It is worth mentioning that Varahi
is a very powerful devi.
LOCATION OF VARAHI DEVI
Varahi Devi is located at D.16/84,
Manmandir Ghat. People can travel upto Dasaswamedh Vishwanath Galli by
rickshaw, enter the gulli and immediately take a right turn and proceed further
for about 150 yards. They may seek guidance from the locals at that place to
reach the temple.
TYPES OF POOJA
The temple is open for worship from
05.30 a.m. to 7.30 a.m. only and remains closed for the entire day. Aarti
is performed in the morning. At the time of aarti, the main door is
closed. If a devotee remains inside, he can have full darshan of aarti.
After the aarti, darshan is allowed for some time and the temple is closed for
the day.
It needs to be mentioned here that
Varahi is a very powerful devi and located under the ground level. A
marble slab is opened and devotees can have darshan through the opening.
Except the Priest, no one is allowed to go to the underground level.
Our enquiries reveal that only
regular worship is allowed in the temple and no special pooja etc. on request
is allowed.
