ततो विष्णुर्महातेजा वाराहं रूपमास्थित: । अन्तर्भूमिं सम्प्रविश्य जगाम दितिजान् प्रति,उधर महातेजस्वी भगवान् विष्णु वाराहरूप धारण कर बड़े वेगसे भूमिके भीतर प्रविष्ट हुए और दैत्योंके पास जा पहुँचे
tato viṣṇur mahātejā vārāhaṃ rūpam āsthitaḥ | antarbhūmiṃ sampraviśya jagāma ditijān prati ||
Pagkaraan, ang makapangyarihan at maningning na Viṣṇu ay nag-anyong Varāha, ang Banal na Baboy-Damo. Pumasok siya sa kailaliman sa ilalim ng lupa at sumugod patungo sa mga demonyong isinilang kay Diti—hudyat ng pakikialam ng Diyos upang maibalik ang kaayusan ng sansinukob kapag ang mapanirang puwersa’y nagbabantang lumaganap.

Educational Q&A
When adharma and destructive forces endanger the world, divine power manifests in an appropriate form to protect creation and re-establish order. The verse emphasizes purposeful intervention guided by the preservation of dharma.
Bhīṣma describes Viṣṇu taking the Varāha form and entering beneath the earth, moving swiftly toward the Diti-born demons (Daityas), indicating an impending confrontation to counter their threat.
