Kubera is the Vedic treasurer of the gods and the lord of wealth, riches and prosperity. While Lakshmi grants the inflow of fortune, Kubera governs the storage and growth of money. If you want the right Kubera mantra for money — with meaning, count, day and direction — this guide has it.
Quick Answer
Chant "Om Shreem Hreem Kleem Kuberaya Namah" 108 times daily, facing North (Kubera's direction), ideally on a Friday or starting on Dhanteras/Akshaya Tritiya. Pair it with a Lakshmi mantra for best results.
Who Is Kubera, the God of Wealth?
Kubera (also Kuber) is the Dhanapati — keeper of the treasures of the gods and the dikpala (guardian) of the North. Where Lakshmi is grace and abundance, Kubera is the disciplined custodian who helps you retain, protect and multiply wealth. This is why business owners and savers chant his mantra for steady cash flow and debt clearance.
The Kubera Mantra for Money
For deeper anushthans, the classical longer mantra is used:

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the most powerful Kubera mantra for money?
The most powerful Kubera mantra is 'Om Yakshaya Kuberaya Vaishravanaya Dhana-Dhanyadhipataye Dhana-Dhanya Samriddhim Me Dehi Dapaya Swaha'. For daily practice, the shorter beej mantra 'Om Shreem Hreem Kleem Kuberaya Namah' is widely used. Chant 108 times daily facing North, the direction Kubera governs.
How many times should I chant the Kubera mantra?
Chant the Kubera mantra 108 times (one mala) daily. For a wealth sankalpa, do a 21-day or 40-day anushthan. Many begin on a Friday, Dhanteras or Akshaya Tritiya. Consistency every day matters more than long irregular sessions.
Which direction should I face for the Kubera mantra?
Always face North while chanting the Kubera mantra. Kubera is the dikpala (guardian) of the North direction, so North-facing jap and keeping your safe, cash box or business ledgers in the North/North-East of your home or shop is considered auspicious for wealth.
What is the difference between Lakshmi and Kubera mantras?
Lakshmi is the goddess of wealth, abundance and fortune — her mantras attract prosperity and grace. Kubera is the treasurer of the gods and lord of wealth storage — his mantras help retain, protect and grow money already earned. Many practitioners chant a Lakshmi mantra for inflow and a Kubera mantra for retention, often together.
Can I chant the Kubera mantra for business growth?
Yes. The Kubera mantra is widely chanted by business owners and traders for steady cash flow, debt clearance and wealth retention. Pair it with the Ganesh mantra to remove obstacles before a new venture, and back it with honest effort and good financial discipline.
Which mala is best for the Kubera mantra?
A Kamal Gatta (lotus seed) or Sphatik (clear quartz) mala is ideal for Kubera and wealth mantras. A green Hakik (agate) mala is also used for prosperity. Use 108 beads plus one Sumeru bead and never cross the Sumeru while counting.
