Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationHṛdviddha (हृद्विद्ध) refers to a “wound in the heart”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.2.40.—Accordingly, as Viṣṇu said to Brahmā and other Devas:—“[...] that lord [i.e., Śiva] has been wounded in the heart [i.e., hṛdviddha] by the wicked Dakṣa by harsh words. Crave the forgiveness of that lord who has lost his beloved now. O Brahman, this is the only remedy for tranquilising him, I think and also for pleasing him. I have mentioned that truth”.
The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
