Hymn of Victory: Varāha, the Slaying of Hiraṇyākṣa, and the Praise of Viṣṇu
म्लेच्छांतकायापि च कल्किनाम्ने नमः पुनः क्रोडवपुर्धराय । जगद्धितार्थं च युगेयुगे भवान्बिभर्ति रूपं त्वसुराभवाय
mlecchāṃtakāyāpi ca kalkināmne namaḥ punaḥ kroḍavapurdharāya | jagaddhitārthaṃ ca yugeyuge bhavānbibharti rūpaṃ tvasurābhavāya
Sembah sujud sekali lagi kepada Kalki, pemusnah kaum mleccha; dan sembah sujud juga kepada-Nya yang menyandang jasad Varaha, tubuh babi hutan suci. Demi kebajikan jagat, dari yuga ke yuga Engkau menjelma, agar para asura menemui kebinasaan.

Concept: For jagad-hita (world welfare), the Lord repeatedly incarnates; evil is not permanent—divine intervention restores balance in every age.
Application: When facing societal decline, avoid despair: commit to personal dharma and devotion, trusting that restoration begins with inner alignment and ripples outward.

FAQs
The verse juxtaposes two avatāra-forms of Viṣṇu—Kalki (future restorer of dharma) and Varāha (rescuer in boar-form)—to emphasize a single theological idea: the Lord repeatedly assumes forms to protect cosmic order and remove destructive forces.
“Yuge yuge” (“in every age”) presents avatāra as a recurring divine intervention: whenever the world’s welfare (jagad-hita) requires it, the Supreme assumes an appropriate form to restore balance.
In a broad Purāṇic-ethical reading, they signify forces opposed to dharma—violence, deceit, and disorder. The verse frames divine action as the removal of such adharma so that the world may be protected and guided back toward righteousness.
