Vishwakarma Puja 2020: The great day in India

September 16, 2020

Vishwakarma Puja 2020:



Vishwakarma Day, also referred to as Vishwakarma Puja, Bhadra Sankranti, and Kanya Sankranti in India marks the anniversary of the birth of Lord Vishwakarma, the great son of Lord Brahma and therefore the creator of the planet. Vishwakarma is mentioned because he is the divine architect and therefore the divine carpenter as he's believed to have created the weapons, palaces, and kingdoms of several Hindu gods. Year after year, Vishwakarma Jayanti comes in September or October, and this year it falls on September 16.


 The festival takes place on the Judgment Day of the Hindu calendar month of Bhadra, when the sun god leaves the Simha rashi (Leo) for the Kanya rashi (Virgo). This day is generally known with much ceremony by members of architecture and engineering communities, also as skilled labourers including smiths, artisans, craftsmen, etc. On today , workers give themselves and their tools a rest and pray for cover and success. Photos and idols of Lord Vishwakarma are often spotted within the offices, factories, and shop floors of such workers as he's very special to them. The festival is widely known with much vigour in several states of India including and also within the neighboring country of Nepal.



 While the COVID-19 pandemic has toned down the festive spirit of practically every bit of holiday and celebration, one can ever share positive wishes, considerations thought and messages with one’s near and dear ones while maintaining social distancing, and health and safety guidelines.


May Lord Vishwakarma – the creator of tools and machines,
and deity of all craftsmen and architects endow upon you his virtue and

goodwill. Happy Vishwakarma Day!
