The abode known as Kailāsa is full of different herbs and vegetables, and it is sanctified by Vedic hymns and mystic yoga practice. Thus the residents of that abode are demigods by birth and have all mystic powers. Besides them there are other human beings, who are known as Kinnaras and Gandharvas and are accompanied by their beautiful wives, who are known as Apsarās, or angels.

Translation
Kailāsa is always filled with persons perfected by yoga, mantra, austerity, herbs and birth, and with devatās, Kinnaras, Gandharvas and Apsaras. Fourteen verses describe Kailāsa. Nara-itaraiḥ means “by devatās.”

Personal Guidance
Kailāsa is sanctified by Vedic hymns and yoga practice — the place itself carries the vibration of those who live there. The atmosphere you cultivate in your home and routines slowly shapes everyone who enters it.
