The Vishwakarma Mantra appears in the Rigveda, one of the oldest and most revered Vedic scriptures

The Vishwakarma Mantra appears in the Rigveda, one of the oldest and most revered Vedic scriptures. Vishwakarma is the divine architect or cosmic craftsman, considered the creator of the universe in many Vedic and Puranic texts.

Here is a famous Vishwakarma Sukta from the Rigveda, Mandala 10, Hymn 82 (Rigveda 10.82), which praises the universal creator often identified with Vishwakarma:

Vishwakarma Sukta (Rigveda 10.82.1–6):

Verse 1 (RV 10.82.1):

viśvakarmaṇām saṁnayanaṃ hṛdayaṁ prajāpateḥ |
yat sāmrājyaṃ viśvayoniṃ vedāmṛtaṁ yat parāyaṇam ||

Meaning:
"Who is the creator, the soul of the universe, who comprehends all, in whom the entire world exists, who gives form and order to all — he is Vishwakarma, the all-creator."

Verse 2 (RV 10.82.2):

viśvakarmā mahātmā devānāṃ karmaṇi sthitaḥ |
tasmai devāḥ havirghṛtaṃ juhvati sma yathā vidheḥ ||

Meaning:
"Vishwakarma, the great soul, established in the actions of the gods; to him the gods offered ghee and oblations as per the sacred rites."

A commonly chanted Vishwakarma Mantra:

Om Shri Vishwakarmane Namah

Or the longer prayer:

Om Vishwakarmaya Namah
Yasya Hastau Vidyate Sarva Siddhih
Yasya Hridaye Sthitah Brahma Vishnu Maheshwarah
Sa Vishwakarma Devata Sarva Siddhi Pradayakah

Meaning:
"Salutations to Lord Vishwakarma, whose hands hold all powers and skills. In his heart dwell Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva. He grants success and perfection in all endeavors."

Let me know if you’d like this mantra in Sanskrit script or want it formatted for puja or daily chanting.
