Sudarśana-cakra is the name of the disc of fire that Lord Viṣṇu, carries in his right hand. It is a disc that represents the deity Śrī Sudarśana, who is believed to have 16 weapons to destroy the 16 different darknesses humans possess. Because of these dark clouds within our minds, we are unable to perceive clearly and act with integrity and clarity. Meditating on Sudarsana is a way to remove this darkness and bring light into our hearts.

This chant is the Gāyatrī mantra for Śrī Sudarśana. Listen to it 16 times each day with a feeling of removing the veil of darkness in the heart. Namaste!!!
