!!!!...Supreme devotion of Vishnu transformed into wheel..!!!
Sudarshan Chakra was given to Lord Vishnu by Lord Shiva who was pleased with Vishnu's devotion. Vishnu went to mount kailash and began to pray to Shiva. He chanted many mantras, but there was no sign of Shiva. Shiva has a thousand names and Vishnu next started to chant these names. Each day he chanted the thousand names and offered a thousand lotus flowers to Shiva. One day, he found one lotus flower was missing after offering 999.When Vishnu realized that there was one lotus flower less, he gouged out his own eye and offered it in place of the missing lotus flower (as Vishnu also called Kamal Nayna ).Shiva was pleased and appeared before Vishnu and this supreme exemplification of devotion on his part was transformed into the wheel (sudarshana chakra) in his hand, which he uses for protecting the world. However the chakra was too powerful for Vishnu to hold. So Shiva made it into three parts, one given to Vishnu, one to Shakti and one he kept for himself. With that Chakra the reverend Lord Vishnu is protecting all the worlds. The form of Lord Shiva blessing Vishnu with the disc is the Chakra Prada Murthi.
May lord Shiva bless all !!
