Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationDhṛtyutsāha (धृत्युत्साह) refers to “enthusiastic people”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.52 (“The bridegroom’s party is fed and Śiva retires to bed”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada: “[...] Seated on a gemset throne offered by Menā, Śiva surveyed the bedchamber with pleasure. [...] While the supreme lord had his sleep and the lord of the mountains was engaged in these duties, the night passed away giving place to dawn. In the morning the enthusiastic people (dhṛtyutsāha-parāyaṇa) began to play on different kinds of musical instruments. [...]”.
The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences.
