His brotherRavana, by practicing austerities, obtained fromShivathe boon of invincibility and so was able to defeatKuberand to seize and retainLankaand the chariot,Pushpak. As Lanka could not be restored to Kuber,Viswakarma,the architect god, built him a palace onMount Kailash. He also has a beautiful garden calledChaitrarathonMount Mandara. Kuber’s domains are all in the high Himalayas, partly because he is theguardian of the North, but also because the mountains are the repository of mineral wealth.
