What is Sudarshan Chakra (Meaning)

Introduction:

Lord Vishnu

The Sudarshana Chakra is the whirling disk-like weapon used by Lord Vishnu. The Puranas state that the Sudarshana Chakra is the most powerful weapon that can annihilate the strongest of enemies. It is believed to slay the enemies of law, order and conservation in the form of asuras, rakshasas and vikrutatma.

Legends associated with Sudarshana

The word Sudarshana is inclusive of two Sanskrit words, ‘Su’ that means good or divine and ‘Darshana’ means vision. It personifies the right intent of the soul and seeks to fulfill it. It is the cosmic weapon of the Supreme Godhead, Lord Vishnu. It is believed that Sudarshana Chakra was presented by Lord Shiva to Lord Vishnu in recognition of His devotion. The legend goes that when the atrocities that the asuras were wreaking upon the Gods became too much to bear, Lord Vishnu was consulted. The Gods wanted Him to find out the way to destroy the sufferings, but since He did possess enough power, He decided to take the help of Lord Shiva, for which He set out to meet Him.

Lord Vishnu meditating on Lord Shiva When Lord Vishnu went to Lord Shiva, He was in deep meditation. Lord Vishnu thought it inappropriate to disturb His trance, so He waited and began praying to Him earnestly. Moments turned into days and days turned into years that passed with Lord Vishnu meditating on Lord Shiva, chanting His name and waiting for Him to open His eyes. Everyday He would gather a thousand lotus blossoms and offer to Lord Shiva and chant His name.

The evil attacks of the asuras targeting the Gods were going on in full swing. Lord Vishnu felt powerless before the circumstances as there was no way that He could interrupt the meditation of Lord Shiva. His patience and efforts finally paid as one day Lord Shiva finally opened His eyes. Lord Vishnu was overjoyed. He began offering one thousand lotus blossoms to Lord Shiva but He soon realized that he was running short of one. Actually, Lord Shiva had hidden one flower to see what He'd do. Lord Vishnu devotedly plucked out one eye and offered it in place of the flower. Lord Shiva was overcome with emotions on seeing His devotion, so He told Him that He could ask for any boon and He'd grant it. Lord Vishnu appealed to be bestowed with a weapon that'd help defeat the asuras. So Lord Shiva gave the Sudarshana Chakra to Lord Vishnu and assured Him that it had the power to destroy all the enemies.

Sudarshana Chakra - the weapons of Lord Vishnu A Sudarshana Chakra legend that is recounted is the one in which Viswakarma, the architect of Gods diminished the shine of Surya, the Sun God. Viswakarma's daughter was married to Surya, but could not go near Him as it was difficult to endure His scorching brilliance and heat. So Viswakarma had to reduce the intensity of the Sun by putting him in a cage and churning him. This created a Sun dust from which Vishvakarma created a few powerful golden objects, including the Sudarshana Chakra. Other weapons were Trishoola and Shakthi which were respectively the weapons of Lord Vishnu, Shiva and Subrahamnya. Lord Vishnu holding Sudarshana Chakra is worshipped as Chakrathazhwar, Sage of the wheel.

When Lord Krishna took incarnation, Vishnu gave him this chakra which he could immediately at any time it was his own property. Sri Chaitanya used the chakra to destroy the pride of demons Jagai and Madhaihe.

During Samudra manthan, Lord Vishnu used the Sudarshan chakra to cut through the demon Swarbanu who then became Rahu and Ketu.
