Sri Desikan's Sudarshanaashtakam.

This is a lyrical sloka, 8 in number, by Desikan [13 th cent AD] in praise of the Sudarshana chakra held by Sriman Narayana [Vishnu, Krishna].They are recited to drive away fear and to achieve one's dreams ,how so ever far fetched it may be.

**1. Prathibuta sreni bhisana varaguna stoma bhushana!
Janibhaya sthana tarena jagadvasthana karana!
Nikhila duskarma karsana nigama saddarma darsana!

Jaya jaya sri sudarshana,
Jaya Jaya sri sudarshana!

Meaning.

A terror to hordes of enemies!
Decorated by good and noble qualities!
Destroyer of all fears and the greatest fear of all , of death and re birth!
The cause of the eternal stability of the world!
Incinerator of all kinds of bad karmas!
A mirror like reflection of all the noble thoughts found in the Vedas!

Victory to thee Sri Sudarshana, Victory to thee Sri Sudarshana!
