Vishvakarma / विश्वकर्मा

• Vishvakarma is the Hindu presiding deity of all craftsmen and architects.
• He is the "Principal Universal Architect", the architect who fabricated and designed the divine architecture of the Universe , the Lord of Creation.
• He was the son of the Vasu Prabhas by his wife Varastri.
• Vishvakarma had three daughters, Barhishmati, Surupa and Sangya.
• The monkey named Nal was his son.

He was created to assist Ram, the incarnation of Vishnu, in destroying the Rakshas race. Vishvakarma married his two daughters, Barhishmati and Surupa to king Priyvrat. His daughter Sangya was married to Surya, but as she was incapable of tolerating the sun's brilliance, Vishvakarma cut away an eighth part of his radiance.

• With these fragments of the sun's effulgence, Vishvakarma created the Pushpakviman, the Sudarshan Chakra, the trident of Shiv and the weapon Shakti of Kartikey.
• On Kuber's request, Vishvakarma built a beautiful palace in Lanka for the former.
• Vishvakarma also made the thunderbolt of Indra from the bones of sage Dadhichi. At Shiv's command, he built for the deity a splendid chariot which was used in the burning of Tripur.
