 Kubera then ruled in the golden city of Lanka, identified with modern-day Sri Lanka.The "Mahabharata" says that Brahma conferred upon Kubera the lordship of wealth, friendship with Shiva, godhood, status as a world-protector, a son called "Nalakubera"/"Nalakubara", the Pushpaka Vimana and the lordship of the "Nairrata" demons.Both the "Purana"s and the "Ramayana" feature the half-blood siblings of Kubera.
