Sudarshana is the name of the divine discus weapon wielded by Lord Vishnu, one of the principal deities in Hindu mythology. This spinning, flaming wheel is not only a weapon but also a symbol of Vishnu's power to maintain order and balance in the universe. It represents the mind, the soul, time, the ego, and the fire element.

In various depictions, Sudarshana is often shown alongside Lord Vishnu, either in his four hands or as an extension of his being. Its primary function is to protect dharma (righteousness) and vanquish adharma (unrighteousness).

Mythologically, Sudarshana is believed to have been created by the divine architect Vishwakarma. There are also stories in which Sudarshana is used to defeat demons and evil forces, showcasing its powerful energy in maintaining cosmic order.

By invoking the Sudarshana Gayatri Mantra, devotees seek the protection and blessings of this divine weapon, aiming to rid their lives of negativity, achieve mental clarity, and foster a sense of spiritual security and balance.
