अनेकदैत्यदमनं बहुयंत्रविदारणम् । सूर्यकोटिप्रभाभासं सहस्रारं सुदर्शनम्
anekadaityadamanaṃ bahuyaṃtravidāraṇam | sūryakoṭiprabhābhāsaṃ sahasrāraṃ sudarśanam
Itulah Sudarśana—penakluk tak terbilang raksasa, penghancur banyak yantra dan mesin perang; berkilau laksana sepuluh juta matahari, berjeruji seribu.
Narrator (contextual, within Dvārakā-māhātmya narration)
Tirtha: Sudarśana-prādurbhāva tīrtha (contextual within Dvārakā)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Māhātmya audience
Scene: A colossal Sudarśana chakra rises—thousand-spoked, blazing like millions of suns—hovering above the waters, its rim sharp, aura overwhelming, suggesting demon-subduing power.
The Lord’s dharmic power protects creation: Sudarśana symbolizes swift, luminous justice that removes demonic obstruction.
Dvārakā is the narrative setting; the māhātmya glorifies the city by revealing the presence and power of the Lord’s divine weapon there.
None explicitly; the verse is descriptive, preparing for acts of honor and worship.
