Translation
Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: After hearing from the great sage Maitreya about the Lord’s
incarnation as Varāha, Vidura, who had taken a vow, begged him with folded hands to please
narrate further transcendental activities of the Lord, since he [Vidura] did not yet feel
Text 3.14. 2:
  Śrī Vidura said: O chief amongst the great sages, I have heard by disciplic
succession that Hiraṇyākṣa, the original demon, was slain by the same
form of sacrifices, the Personality of Godhead [Lord Boar].
Text 3.14.3:
  What was the reason, O brāhmaṇa, for the fight between the demon king
and Lord Boar while the Lord was lifting the earth as His pastime?
Text 3.14.4:
  My mind has become very inquisitive, and therefore I am not satisfied with
hearing the narration of the Lord’s appearance. Please, therefore, speak
more and more to a devotee who is faithful.
Text 3.14.5:
  The great sage Maitreya said: O warrior, the inquiry made by you is just
befitting a devotee because it concerns the incarnation of the Personality of
Godhead. He is the source of liberation from the chain of birth and death
for all those who are otherwise destined to die.
Chanakya pandita says
• One ought to be satisfied with these three - with one’s own
wife/husband, food, and wealth. One should never be satisfied with
these three – Sastric studies, chanting/glorifying lord and offering
charity- Chanakya Pandita
•  Vidura was anxious to hear about the chivalrous activities of the Lord
in His incarnations of Varāha and Nṛsiṁha.

Summary
• The topics of the warfare in which the Lord engages do not concern
the war of death but the war against the chain of māyā which obliges
one to accept repeated birth and death. 
• In other words, one who takes delight in hearing the war topics of
the Lord is relieved from the chains of birth and death.
