Lord Vishnu, in his Four Arms, carries the four 'Aayudhas' or attributes, namely

Shankha (Counch) symbolizing origin of existence and is associated with water, the first of the five elements (Jal, Agni, Aaksah, Prithvi, Vayu - Water, Fire, Sky, Earth and Air)

Chakra (Wheel) symbolizes the ever ongoing cycle of life and is associated with Sun.

Gada (Mace) is named 'Kaumudiki' and symbolizes the primal knowledge and is associated with Kal (Time).

Padma (Lotus flower) and symbolizes purity, spiritual wealth, abundance, growth and fertility. Lotus is associated with purity and truth (Satva), the base of Dharma.
