Who Vishwakarma is
Vishwakarma is the architect of the gods, who built their cities, chariots and weapons. Engineers, builders and craftsmen worship him on Vishwakarma Puja.
The 17 Mukhi is given to him in the sources our sheet follows; other texts differ, so it is marked as varying. It is worn for skill, property and the success of work that has to be built. It is rare and priced on request.
