Maharaja Ambarisa said
: O
Sudarsana chakra, you are fire, you are the mostpowerful sun, and you are the
moon, the master of all luminaries.You are water, earth and sky,
you are the air, you are the five sense objects [sound, touch, form, taste and
smell], and you are the senses also. [3]
O most favorite of Acyuta, the
Supreme Personality of Godhead, you have thousands of spokes. O master of the
material world, destroyer of all weapons, original vision of the Personality of
Godhead, I offer my respectful obeisances unto you. Kindly give shelter and be
auspicious to this brahmana. [4]
O Sudarsana wheel, you are religion, you are
truth, you are encouraging statements, you aresacrifice, and you are the enjoyer
of the fruits of sacrifice. You are the maintainer of the entire universe, and
you are the supreme transcendental prowess in the hands of the Supreme
Personality of Godhead. You are the original vision of the Lord, and therefore
you are known as Sudarsana. Everything has been created by your activities, and
therefore you are all-pervading. [5]
O Sudarsana, you have a very auspicious hub,
and therefore you are the upholder of all religion. You are just like an
inauspicious comet for the irreligious demons. Indeed, you are the maintainer of
the three worlds, you are full of transcendental effulgence, you are as quick as
the mind, and you are able to work wonders. I can simply utter the word "namah",
offering all obeisances unto you. [6]
O master of speech, by your effulgence, full of
religious principles, the darkness of the world is dissipated, and the knowledge
of learned persons or great souls is manifested. Indeed, no one can surpass your
effulgence, for all things, manifested and unmanifested, gross and subtle,
superior and inferior, are but various forms of you that are manifested by your
effulgence. [7
O indefatigable one, when you are sent by the
Supreme Personality of Godhead to enter among the soldiers of the Daityas and
the Danavas, you stay on the battlefield and unendingly separate their arms,
bellies, thighs, legs and heads. [8]
O protector of the universe, you are engaged by
the Supreme Personality of Godhead as His all-powerful weapon in killing the
envious enemies. For the benefit of our entire dynasty, kindly favor this poor
brahmana. This will certainly be a favor for all of us. [9]
If our family has given charity to the proper
persons, if we have performed ritualistic ceremonies and sacrifices, if we have
properly carried out our occupational duties, and if we have been guided by
learned brahmanas, I wish, in exchange, that this brahmanas be freed from the
burning caused by the Sudarsana chakra. [10]
If the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is
one without a second, who is the reservoir of all transcendental qualities, and
who is the life and soul of all living entities, is pleased with us, we wish
that this brahmana, Durvasa Muni, be freed from the pain of being burned. [11]
