MAINĀKA I   
1) General information.
A mountain. This mountain was the son of Himavān and father of Krauñca. [Śloka 13, Chapter 18, Harivaṁśa] .
2) How the mountain helped Hanūmān.
There is an unbreakable tie between Maināka and the Kings of Ikṣvāku family. There is a story in Brahmāṇḍa Purāṇa that the sāgara (ocean) was constructed by the sixty thousand sons of the King Sagara of Ikṣvāku family. This sāgara once gave refuge to Maināka and brought it up. There is a reason for that:-- In the early yugas mountains had wings and they used to fly and drop to the ground as they liked. People used to live in fright always and at the request of the people Indra made the mountains stand in a row and cut off their wings. At that time the god Vāyu (wind) took away his friend Maināka and put him in the ocean. From that day onwards Maināka and the ocean developed an intimacy which even death could not wipe off. Hanūmān was the son of Vāyu, the friend and saviour of Maināka. It was because of that that Maināka gave refuge for Hanūmān on his way to Laṅkā. Because the ocean gave refuge to Maināka after its escape from the sword of Indra and because the ocean (Sāgara) was the creation of the sons of Sagara, a King of the Ikṣvāku race, Maināka felt indebted to Sagara and the entire race to which he belonged. Maināka thus had great respect for Śrī Rāma who belonged to the Ikṣvāku race. This was also responsible for Maināka giving relief to Hanūmān on his way to Laṅkā. (See under Parvata).
2) Other details.
(i) This mountain is situated near the lake Bindusarovara which was to the north of Kailāsa. Bhagīratha did penance to bring Gaṅgā to the earth on this mountain. [Chapter 3, Sabhā Parva] .
(ii) Pāṇḍavas who went to the north crossed the mountain Maināka and went further. [Śloka 1, Chapter 139, Vana Parva] .
(iii) The mountain Maināka shines with golden peaks. [Śloka 44, Chapter 145, Vana Parva] .
MAINĀKA II   A holy place on the west coast on the banks of the river Narmadā. This is also on a mountain. [Śloka 11, Chapter 89, Vana Parva] .
MAINĀKA III   Another mountain. [This is in Krauñcadyīpa. Śloka 18, Chapter 12, Bhīṣma Parva] .
