Searching for the Adi Varaha Deity in Mathura, India.
According to the Adi Varaha Purana, the story of this Deity is that Kapila Muni made this Deity of Varaha by his mind. Kapila gave this Deity to Lord Indra in Satya-yuga. Indra worshiped this Deity in his kingdom. When Ravana took over Indra's kingdom, Ravana took this Adi Varaha Deity to his capital, in Lanka. When Lord Rama killed Ravana he installed Ravana's brother, Vibhisana, on the throne of Lanka. Vibhisana offered everything to Rama. Rama said he did not want anything, except the Varaha Deity that was taken from the city of Indra. Vibhisana gave Rama this Deity. He carried the Deity back to Ayodhya and worshiped the Deity there for 110 years. When Satrughna, Lord Rama's brother, went to Mathura, to kill some demons, he brought this Deity with him and the Deity has been here ever since.
