Frequently Asked Questions
Q.What is the Sudarshana Chakra?
The Sudarshana Chakra is the spinning discus weapon of Lord Vishnu — one of the most iconic symbols in Hinduism. Sudarshana means "beautiful vision" (su = beautiful, darshana = vision). It spins at the tip of Vishnu's right index finger and is said to travel at the speed of the mind. It destroys evil while protecting the good, and represents the discriminating intellect (Viveka) that separates truth from illusion.
