The Shanka (conch) and the Chakra (disc) are integral to Vaishnavite iconography. This set of ritual objects made of brass is called the Sangu-Chakra thara. It is used during the abhisheka, or bathing ritual of deities. Milk and other libations are poured atop the icons through the opening on the top. It can also be classified as a spoon used in Yagyas.

 

The Shankha Panchajanya and Sudharshan Chakra are weapons to be found in the hands of Lord Vishnu, the deity responsible for cosmic projection, and as such, are sacred symbols in Hindu life and ideology. The former is the curvy, diamond-shaped implement you see on this page, while the latter is the discoid object accompanying it. These ritual spoons would be valuable additions to the space of a true abider of the Hindoo philosophy.

 

The shankha occupies pride of place in Lord Vishnu’s hand and on the altar of every Hindu. The receptacle of nada, the cosmic stream of dhvanee (sound), runs through the entirety of life, adding continuity to its apparent discreteness. The chakra stands for the cyclical nature of life and being, the fact that time itself is a full circle because the events that characterize it return to their perceived starting point. Positioning the shankha and chakra apparatus in a corner of your space would imbue it with life-affirming energy.
