Once upon a time, there was a massive fight between gods and the asuras. Being loosing in the war every time, Gods went to Vishnu and request him to find a solution for this. Vishnu smiled and assured them.
Vishnu then did a massive tapashya of God Shiva by presening 1000 lotus flowers where in each lotus he chant the name of God Shiva. But,to test the pure bhakti of God Vishnu, Shiva did a trick. Shiva stole one flower from the plate, without Vishnu's Knowledge. When Vishnu was about to complete 1000 names, he found one lotus missing. Vishnu then surprised. He was thinking what to do. Then a idea came into Vishnu's mind. He thought that every one called him "Kamalnayan- meaning lotus eyed.", so if he donate his one eye to God Shiva then it would be same as presenting a lotus.
He then take an arrow and going to cut his one eye. When he was about to cut, Shiva appeared before him and hold his hands and told that he was the greatest devotee of him(Shiva).
Shiva then present Vishnu a compulsive weapon, named Sudarshan Chakra.
With this weapon Vishnu defeat all the Asuras.
After that this weapon remain with Vishnu.
