In poetic composition there are two types of convention on gold and jewels-

1. Poets are describe gold and jewels in all mountain and
2. Jewels are describe in everywhere in the oceans.

However, in all mountains have not gold or jewels, but poetic convention allows this description. Then in the poetic convention the river 罢腻尘谤补辫补谤峁嚹� is the abode of pearls but it obtain from Oysters.

In mythological believe mountains are the source of gold and from these gold鈥檚 flowed through the rain water and deposited on the bank of rivers. There gold is not limited to any Particular Mountain, but the poets describe the particular mountain Meru only abode of gold. When the supreme creator Brahma created this universe, the mountain Meru being as nucleus.

In the K膩vyam墨m膩峁僺膩 it is described in the centre of 闯补尘产耻诲惫墨辫补 as:

鈥�madhyejambudv墨pam膩dyo gir墨峁嚹佱箖 merurn膩mn膩 办腻帽肠补苍补岣� 艣补颈濒补谤腻箩补岣� |
