How to Chant Vishwakarma Aarti
Instructions
Light a lamp (ghee or camphor) and, holding it, perform the aarti by circling it before the deity while singing, ideally with a bell. Offer flowers and prasad, and conclude by taking the aarti blessing (passing the hands over the flame and to the eyes). Sing with devotion and a steady heart.
Spiritual Significance
It is told that Vishwakarma fashioned the golden Lanka, Indra's thunderbolt, the gods' flying chariots and the divine cities themselves. On his Puja day, factories and workshops fall silent as tools are garlanded and this aarti is sung for a year of safe, skilful and prosperous work.
