Purana and Itihasa (epic history)

Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

Dāraparigraha (दारपरिग्रह) refers to “”marriage, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.24 (“Śiva consents to marry Pārvatī”).—Accordingly, as Nandīśvara said to Gods: “O Viṣṇu, O Brahmā, O Indra, O gods and O sages, pay heed to my words gratifying to Śiva. If you persist still in your wish that Śiva shall marry [i.e., dāraparigraha], you shall eulogise with respect and piteous request. O gods, great lord cannot be made subservient by ordinary devotion. The supreme lord does even what shall not be done when moved by extraordinary devotion. O Brahmā, Viṣṇu and other gods, then act accordingly, otherwise go the way you have come. Tarry not”.
