In Angira family there was Aadi Shilpacharya Vishwakarma. There are many meanings of Vishwakarma in Sanskrit, one is used for the power that constructed the universe, second is used for son of Bhuvan, Vishwakarma and third is used for post. The word “Vishwakarma” was first used in Vishwakarma Sukta of Rigya Ved. The 14 mantras of Sukta 81 & 82 of tenth mandal of Rigya Ved’s are called Vishwakarma Sukta. According to this, Vishwakarma was one to create this universe. According to Shwetashvatropnishad; Vishwakarma always lives in the heart of each person, who one knows this secret become immortal. According to Nirukt written by Yask sage, Vishwakarma is the creator of all materials of available in universe. He described Vishwakarma with thousands of heads, arms, eyes and legs and told that he is long life & shapeless, means have huge size. According to Mool Stambh Puran, Vishwakarma is god who has no start and no end.
But no relationship has been found between ShilpVishwakarma and above said Vishwakarma in history. Only a relation is found that magic visionary Bhuvan Vishwakarma had known the secrets of universe creator Vishwakarma and enforced the operation of the craft science accordingly.
