The Varada mudra is known to be the mudra of granting boon, mercy and salvation while the Abhaya mudra is known to be a message to his devotee that they should not be afraid of anything as their protector is there to shield them from danger. This stance also represents that the devotee or people should not be scared of any challenges that life throws at them with fearlessness.
