Hayagriva says in the Brahmada maha purana, Lalitopakhyanam, “O Agastya hear those twelve names. By merely hearing these names, the great goddess Varahi shall become pleased. A man, who remains protected in the diamond-cage composed of these twelve names, shall never become unhappy, even during the most difficult of times. Thus, with these names the celestials stood in the sky and praised Sri Varahi Devi.”
पञ्चमी दन्डनाथा च सङ्केता समयेश्वरी |
तथा समयसङ्केता वाराही पोत्रिणी शिवा ||
वार्ताली च महासेना~प्याज्ञाचक्रेश्वरी तथा |
अरिघ्नी चेति संप्रोक्तं नाम द्वादशकं मुने ||
नाम द्वादशधाभिक्ज्ञ वज्र पञ्जर मध्यग: |
सङकटे दु:खमाप्नोति न कदाचन मानव: ||
Panchami Dandhanatha cha Sanketha Samayeshwari
Tatha Samayasanketa Varahi Pothrini Shivaa
Varthali cha Mahasena Agnachakreshwari Arighni
