This distinctive icon of Chakrathallavar (Sudarshana Chakra in an anthropomorphic form) on one side and the fierce Sri Narasimha on the other, a potent object in Tamil Vaishnava temples, is carved in ritually pure Panchaloha.
The discus of Sri Vishnu, also called Sudarshan Perumal, is revered with the picture of Vishnu-Narayana and assumes a divine aspect in this emblem.
The image's reverse shows the lion-headed Lord as "Yoga-Narasimha," standing atop a seat supported by Adi Shehsa's hoods.
Together, the two holy beings symbolize Vishnu's fast and ultimate protection.
Raised by two roaring lions who symbolize strength and royalty, the Chakrathalwar icon is available in various sizes to fit the requirements of every ritual space.
