Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationSarvaratneśvara (सर्वरत्नेश्वर) refers to the “master of all excellent things” and is used to describe Jalandhara, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.19 (“Jalandhara’s emissary to Śiva”).—Accordingly, as Rāhu said to Śiva: “O bull-bannered god, listen to the behest of Jalandhara [i.e., the lord of Daityas who has divine power and who is the master of all excellent things (sarvaratneśvara)]. [Jalandhara said]:—‘How can the auspicious daughter of Himavat be a wife unto you who habitually stay in the cremation ground wearing garlands of bones and assuming the form of a naked ascetic. I am the possessor of all excellent things. She is the most excellent of all ladies. She deserves me better than you who live on alms. [...]’.”.
