What is sudharshan chakra?

Sudarshan Chakra is a powerful circular weapon or discus associated with the Hindu god Vishnu. The word 'Sudarshan' can be translated as "vision of which is auspicious" in Sanskrit. It is believed to possess immense power and can destroy anything or anyone within seconds.

According to Hindu mythology, Sudarshan Chakra was given to Lord Vishnu by Lord Shiva. It is one of the most sacred weapons in Hinduism and is considered an incarnation of Lord Vishnu himself. It is also depicted on the flag of the Indian Navy.

The Sudarshan Chakra is said to have several blades, and its movement creates a whirlwind-like effect, which can be devastating to whoever comes in its path. It is believed that the Sudarshan Chakra was used by Lord Krishna during the Mahabharata war to vanquish his enemies.

In Hindu practices, the Sudarshan Chakra is worshipped as a symbol of protection, and its devotees believe that praying to Lord Vishnu with it can protect them from harm. The chakra is also revered as a symbol of the constant motion of the universe and the impermanent nature of all life.
