The VarAha Pr., "[1] desire [2]anger [3] greed [4] passion [5] bewilderment [6] envy [7] calumny [8] scorn , thus there are eight mothers. You should recognise desire as Yogesvari, anger as Mahesvari, greed is said to be Vaisnavi, passion as BrahmAni, bewilderment is the self existent KalyAni, envy as IndrajA, the Devi, holding in her the hand the death rod [Yamadanda] is herself calumny, and scorn is VarAhA.
